CNN . . . "It is no small thing for the king of
Jordan, a direct descendent of the Prophet Mohammed, to march in a rally
prompted by the murders of people who mocked Islam as well as of
innocent Jews - all of whom were killed by Islamic extremists.
"The United States, which considers itself
to be the most important nation in the world, was not represented in
this march - arguably one of the most important public demonstrations in
Europe in the last generation - except by U.S. Ambassador Jane Hartley,
who may have been a few rows back. I didn't see her. Even Russia sent
Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.
"I say this as an American - not as a journalist, not as a representative of CNN - but as an American: I was ashamed." . . .
