I'm a big believer in Occam's Razor, and so I tend to look askance at conspiracy theories, but this one seems to fit within the range of the simplest possible explanations.
There is no question that Republicans saw this election slipping away.
The people behind this video wanted death, chaos, and calamity - there is no better explanation for why it was sent directly to Muslim television outlets.
I also believe that there is no level of treason and lack of concern for consequences that the modern Republican party is not capable of.
Hell, they've made getting nothing done in Congress their number one priority, and didn't care one bit that the people of this country have been struggling and - stop me if this is crazy - needed some actual leadership and statesmanship from their government.
I hope people are pushing as hard as possible on this story and will not stop until they reveal everyone who was involved in the plan to recklessly set this video loose on the world. I'd like to know the full team behind the production, and I'd like to know exactly who they've been in contact with over the last six months.
I wouldn't be surprised at all to learn that they have connections to the power structure of that party.
