News Event:
Turmoil continues across the Middle East and beyond over a low-budget movie that denigrates the Prophet Muhammad.
The anti-Islam video has unleashed deadly violence and anger at the United States across the Muslim world.
At least 30 people have died in demonstrations across the world since clips of a crude American made film portraying the Prophet Muhammad as fraud and a womanizer were released online.
