In the interview, Nakoula says he was sad that Ambassador Chris Stevens had been killed but he did not regret making the film. Voice of America has a transcript of the conversation.
Nakoula says that the movie grew out of a book he wrote in 1993 but he refused to give the name of the book. He claims that there are now “prominent producer and directors” who plan to produce other, similar movies. He also says that he did not expect the film to cause such a strong reaction. He says he find it “funny and ridiculous” that anyone would think the United States had anything to do with the film.
Nakoula also claims that he is considering releasing the entire film on YouTube.

He should be taken and left tied up in front of one of our embassies and left there. Or turned over to the marines whose buddies died because of his stupid film. I am sure he would regret it then. For the few minutes he was still alive anyway. What a douche.
Garcia also told CNN the script did not include a Prophet Muhammed character and that the actors complained their lines had been changed. She said she spoke Wednesday with Bacile [an pseudonym for Nakoula] who told her he wrote the script “because he wants the Muslims to quit killing,”

He had to know it would provoke a reaction. Plan and simple I believe he intended to create this level of anger around the world. The murder of the ambassador was just further fuel to the fire.

Perhaps but I doubt he expected this kind of reaction. There are many other films that make fun of Muhammad.
Perhaps the reaction would not be so strong except some extremist Muslim leader saw opportunity in this - to force the USA and other western countries to make laws that cater to their agenda. We see recently in Australia they have made laws saying it's a crime to speak ill of Muhammad. Just a few days ago the Muslim Brotherhood called for all western countries to do that same. This may be a ploy to force the USA to change their laws and do away with free speech to further the Muslim extremist agenda.

I just find it hard to believe that this guy had any kind of good intention at all. If he did, he would certainly regret the carnage that resulted from it. Unless he's just not human and has no emotions at all. I am going to have to agree with Bane on this one, he knew exactly what he was doing.edit on 15-9-2012 by billy197300 because: add

The Voice of America, has a transcript here: www.voanews.com...]
A man who says he was behind the private film sparking demonstrations in the Muslim world is criticizing the protesters.
In an interview with U.S.-government-funded Radio Sawa, the alleged director of the film says his fellow Arabs "have to learn demonstrate peacefully against the issues on which we disagree." He says any allegation the United States government was involved in the making of the movie is "funny and ridiculous" and that "America has nothing to do with the film."
