[h=1]Is There Really a Sam Bacile?[/h]

News reports have indicated that the film mocking the Prophet Muhammad, that has resulted in outrage in the Muslim world and the attack on the U.S. embassy in Libya resulting in the death of U.S. Ambassador Stevens, was made by Sam Bacile. But is there really such a person?
U.K.ā€™s Daily Mail reports:
A search is on for the man behind the ā€˜blasphemousā€™ film that branded Mohammed a fraud, pedophile and a womaniser and sparked deadly protests after records apparently reveal he does not exist.
The producer, whose movie led to demonstrations that left the U.S. ambassador to Libya and three other American officials dead on Tuesday, claimed he was an Israeli Jew named Sam Bacile and living in California.
But his identity began to crumble as it emerged Israeli authorities had no records of him being a citizen, and there were no property, phone, license or court records of Bacile in California.
Despite claiming he had spent $5 million on the film, he also has virtually no footprint in the Hollywood community, has no agent listed on IMDBPro and no credits on any film or TV production.
Steve Klein, a consultant for the film, told the National that Bacile is not Israeli or Jewish and is in fact working under a pseudonym ā€“ but he does not know the manā€™s real name.
It raises questions over the real identity of the man behind the ā€˜offensiveā€™ film and his motives for creating a movie that promised to spark outrage ā€“ and death.
He claimed the two-hour movie cost $5 million and was financed with the help of more than 100 Jewish donors, who believe the film will help his native land by exposing Islamā€™s flaws to the world.
The film ā€œreleasedā€ into the Muslim world on 9-11 is clearly designed to enrage the Muslim world, sort of like the way the 9-11 attacks enraged many in the U.S.
And now the filmmaker turns out to be a mystery man. Very interestin
