Protesters climb U.S. Embassy walls in Cairo
[Updated at 5:38 p.m. ET]Â Angry protesters climbed the walls of the U.S. Embassy in Cairo on Tuesday and tore down the American flag, apparently in protest of a film thought to insult the Prophet Mohammed.
A volley of warning shots were fired as a large crowd gathered around the compound, said CNN producer Mohammed Fahmy, who was on the scene, though it is not clear who fired the shots.
Egyptian police and army personnel have since formed defensive lines around the facility in an effort to prevent the demonstrators from advancing farther, but not before the protesters affixed their standard atop the embassy.
The black flag, which hangs atop a ladder inside the compound, is adorned with white characters that read, "There is no God but Allah and Mohammad is his messenger," an emblem often used in al Qaeda propaganda.
It was unclear which film upset the protesters.

And the tourisum in egypt is dead.
Do you think that Islamothugs and murderers give a whit about TOURISM?
Durka Durka!
Mohammed Jihad!
I love your balls!
Cut off all aid to these ungrateful SOBs now
Obama built that!
He certainly did and if we have the somber hope of 4 more Obama years, brace yourselves for what's to come our way
Hell yes! What a total, ignorant failure he is.
If you're willing to charge a building to vandalize it over something as silly as a movie, you're clearly out of your mind.
Well put.
Hey the religion of peace is at it again. And this after CNN puts that trash about how Muslims have to live in fear in the US. Yep, they're the victims.
And america is the beacon of hope in the world!
**ends sarcasm**
America – under Obama – is finished as a credible NATION, let alone world leader!
You're impotent, broke and gullible - I'll BET you vote the "failure-in-Chief" in for another 4 years because you know nothing about your own economy but Obama IS charming!!!!!!! Pffft!
The only good muslim is a dead muslim
You are correct.
f em
welcome to Iran II
Wow can anybody say "IRAN" and Jimmie Carter....
Yobama what are you going to do now?!?!?!?!?!?!??
Of course he'll find a way to blame Bush, what were you thinking of?
We can go to war with them. Jspareme can go fight it along with his family. He can also pay for it too.
Js and Miami – Well said both.
I reckon Obama will apologise to the Egyptians for putting them to so much trouble!
Jspareme & Miami Cuban & Selfish IsADisease – All I have to say to you three is stuff it.
If you are American and don't want to give our president the respect he deserves go find another country that will put up with your hatred and vitrole. If you aren't an US citizen SHUT UP!
@Jason – You've said the same thing in defense of President Bush, right?
Finally cnn puts up a new story. Does anyone else wonder why cnn cannot be punctual with news updates. Everything on the front page is old news as in it hasn't changed in two days.
Seems like a pretty good way to get shot.
Dutch film. American embassy. Yeah, that makes sense.
This is just a spill over from the Chicago School Teachers Strike. Unions and Muslims. Obama's people.
And you are a moron. Romey's stooge.
