This is the compound that housed the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, the morning after deadly attacks.<br/> <br />On Tuesday protesters stormed the consular building - denouncing a U.S.-made film as insulting to the Prophet Mohammad.<br/> <br />This assault, and two attacks by militants that followed, left four Americans dead.<br/> <br />Among them was the U.S. ambassador Christopher Stevens, seen here in a U.S. State Department video made before his departure to Libya.<br/> <br />His killing has been condemned by both U.S. President Barack Obama and Libyan leaders.<br/> <br />There's some confusion over the film which is now enraging Muslims in Egypt, Libya, and elswhere.<br/> <br />While controversial U.S. Pastor Terry Jones, who created anger with plans to burn a Koran, said he had promoted a film about Muslims --<br/> <br />-- clips of another film have been circulating online protraying Mohammad as a fool, a philanderer and a religious fake.<br/> <br />Any depiction of the Prophet is considered offensive by most Muslims.
