Moroccans Protest against Film Outside U.S. Consulate in Casablanca |
2012-09-13 |
[An Nahar] Hundreds of Moslems protested on Wednesday outside the U.S. consulate in Morocco's largest city Casablanca to decry a film deemed insulting to Islam that already sparked deadly violence in Libya, an Agence La Belle France Presse photographer reported. The protesters, numbering between 300 and 400 mostly young activists, gathered around 200 meters (yards) from the consulate amid a heavy police presence. Some shouted anti-U.S. slogans, including "Death to Obama!", but without resorting to violence. |
