AFP reports: The convicted fraudster behind an online video that outraged Muslims says has no regrets. Nakoula Basseley Nakoula's crude trailer for the anti-Islam film first appeared on YouTube in July, but touched off protests worldwide in September in the wake of a deadly attack on the US diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya.

Nakoula, convicted of bank fraud in 2010, was later arrested in Los Angeles for violating the terms of his release on probation, for which he now is serving a one-year prison sentence, the New York Times reported today.
