Benghazi, Libya (CNN) -- Ten days after four Americans were killed in their Libyan city, hundreds marched in Benghazi and took over the headquarters of a radical Islamist group tied to the attack.
Thousands of protesters had taken to the street earlier Friday, loudly declaring that they -- and not those behind last week's deadly attack -- represent the real sentiments of the Libyan people.
"I am sorry, America," one man said. "This is the real Libya."

Wow, now this is really encouraging and long overdue. I hope it will set a precedent. It's so important that Muslims decry, en masse, what the terrorists are doing, because silence is so often equated with consent.
