Anti-American protests are getting worse


Posted: Sep 14, 2012

On a "breaking news point" this morning, it was stated that protestors stormed a school in the ME. Haven't found anything to verify this yet.

One of the worst riots took place in Sudan, where a thousands converged on the German Embassy and set it on fire, a journalist on the scene said. Some managed to get inside and pull down a German flag before police with tear gas forced the crowd to retreat.

– Egypt’s influential and well-organized Muslim Brotherhood canceled nationwide protests planned for Friday, it announced on Twitter, but said a demonstration planned for Cairo’s Tahrir Square would go ahead. At least 15 people were injured in demonstrations in Egypt on Friday, Health Ministry spokesman Mohamed Sultan said.

– In Tunis, Tunisia, hundreds of protesters reached the gates of the U.S. Embassy despite police roadblocks leading up to the complex, an eyewitness said. Police fired tear gas on the crowd, but protesters climbed the gates waving black flags, the witness said. Some got into the grounds, lowered the American flag from its pole and raised a black flag its place, an eyewitness said.

– In Sudan’s capital, Khartoum, some of the 10,000 protesters that rallied at the Germany Embassy managed to get inside and pull down a German flag before police with tear gas forced the crowds to retreat. The German mission is next to the British Embassy, which is also facing protests, staff there said.

– In Afghanistan, hundreds of demonstrators in the eastern Nangarhar province burned a U.S. flag and chanted “Death to America” and “We condemn the film.” The demonstration lasted about an hour and ended peacefully, a local official said. The Afghan government has ordered an indefinite block of YouTube to prevent people there from watching the clips and staging violent protests.

– In Baghdad, Iraq, hundreds of followers of the radical Shiite Muslim cleric Muqtada al-Sadr chanted “No to America, no to Israel.”

– In Jerusalem, Palestinians marched from the al-Aqsa mosque toward the U.S. Consulate, but were prevented from reaching the mission by Israeli riot forces.

– In Syria, hundreds gathered outside the U.S. Embassy in Damascus. Protesters waved placards that condemned the film and blamed the U.S. administration for allowing the production and broadcast of it, according to the state-run Syrian Arab News Agency.

– In Iran, the Islamic Propagation Coordination Council called for nationwide rallies Friday to protest the film and what it is calling a U.S.-backed plot against Muslims, according to the state-run IRNA news agency.

Why Do You Think There Are Protests In Nov 26, 2014
Surely they do not really care that much about Michael Brown or Darren Wilson personally.  Do you think it is all unjustified protesting?  Michael Brown ISSUE was a spark to a movement.  This movement represents 2 things: 1.  Racial discrimination by police/authority and society in the U.S. 2.  Police aggression and brutality/over-reaction, frequently against people of color (brown and tan).   Obviously, the extreme looting/burning in St. Louis is out of line.&n ...

The German police aren't standing down like the American police do. They're getting right in the fray and pushing back.

The country’s Muslim population, drawn largely from ex-colonies in North and West Africa, shrugged off the controversy as imams in mosques denounced the pictures but urged their followers to remain calm. The drawings have stoked a furore over an anti-Islam film made in Ca ...

He suggested instead that this was "payback" by gay people just because o ...
