WORLD WIDE PROTESTS

Scotsman: World Wide Protests Continue

ANTI-WAR protests continued around the world yesterday, with
demonstrations
leading to violence and arrests in Australia and the Middle East. In
Sydney, 45 people were arrested after demonstrators pelted police with
tables, chairs and bottles from pavement cafés. There were also arrests
and injuries at demonstrations in Tripoli in Lebanon, and in Seoul, the
South Korean capital. American businesses became the focus of anger in
Pakistan, where the US flag was burnt in the streets. Anti-war
protesters
in the country called for a boycott of US businesses such as KFC.
