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.

Time to pull out of this dump. These people are clearly stuck in the 7th century. Just another example of Islam's tolerance of others.
How's that Arab Spring working out for ya Obama ? YES WE CAN HOPE AND CHANGE
islum is such a Gutter Religion
WOW. If the embassy can't summon the courage to defend American ideals than they do not belong there. Burn the place down so it can't be used and leave. It is too dangerous to have children on the front line. Children cannot defend themselves much less the rest of the world.
Hey, it's the arab spring, like irish spring, it'll wash away all bad things.
islum = Gutter Religion
The stunning idiocy of most of the people posting here. A few Egyptians in their 20's climb on top of a wall outside the US embassy. -> Let's go to war with the whole Muslim world!!! They climbed on the wall, that's an act of war.
Anybody recall some right wing nutjob shooting up a Sikh Temple the other day? Did Pakistan declare war on us yet?
Why would they? Sikhs are Indian.
Technically speaking they are from Punjab which is split between the two
Gee, my mistake. Never met a Pakistani Sihk, though, and I have a GIANT community of Sikhs where I live.
Murderjunkie – if we did it right, a war with these sand monkeys would be over in about 15 minutes. Their countries reduced to fused glass, and the oil under them enriched by radioactivity. There will be no peace until Islam is wiped off the planet like the disease it is.
Everything in the middle east is so much better since that Arab Spring thing.
The United States continues to deal with the barbarians of the muslim cult and the president refuses to meet with the prime minister of Israel. Is there any doubt about where the loyalty of the evil progressive movement and the madmen of the Obama administration lies? Past time to make a change in November.
Any good Middle Eastern citizen should hate the United States.
Our nation is full of religious Christian freaks who have spent the past 40 years bombing about 20+ nations.
Go Protestors!
I have to laugh at the irony of American's getting their panties all in a bun about 3000 dead on 9/11.
Heck – the US murdered 3000 Middle Easterner's EVERY DAY for 450+ days during one stretch in 2004.
Good point about killing 3000 Muslims a day....that is sad...we need to increase that number by at least 10 fold....We are America damnit We can do better!!
So you're saying the us killed over 1.3 million people in 2004.... stupid
There is no such thing as a good middle eastern citizen. You are all a bunch of third world cretins. The only people in the middle east who have bilt a decent society is Israel. Instead of playing fottsie with you bearded beasts we should drop the big one on Cairo, Baghdad, tehran and Damascus. Boom.
Joanne...you do realize you have no rights as a woman under the Muslim Brotherhoods rule....How any woman can side with these people is beyond me
"Murder" is a legal term, and has a legal definition. Killing armed combatants in a war is not the same as murder, but someone like you who obviously only wants to demagogue an issue would not be able to understand the difference. You're a fool, and I've broken my own rules by even replying to you. Call it generosity.

Dear Mark,
Please, don't reproduce.
Yours truly,
The rest of the world
Ridiculous person making ludicrous claims. Completely unbelievable to all but the most anti-american hater
many more arabs have killed each other before usa ever did
may a pig fart up your nose and the nose of 'o'hamed', our irish-muslim islamist pigsident
Fix your own country first, then worry about us.
Would gladly do that and take all of our money and interests out of your country.
You spelled "angrier" wrong.
THIS PRESIDENT WAS TASKED TO BE JUST THAT. A PRESIDENT WITH BALLS FOR THIS NATION AND WITH RESPONSIBLITY TO DEFEND OUR INTERESTS EVERYWHERE IN THE WORLD. THE UN WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR
WORLD PEACE KEEPING HAS SHURKED THOSE DUTIES SINCE THE BEGINNG. THEY ARE NOW THROWING IT IN OUR
LAP. WE ONCE SPOKE SOFTLY BUT CARREID A BIG STICK. WE WERE RESPECTED AND FEARED,WE NOW HAVE NO RESPECT AND NO ONE AT THE HELM TO LEAD. THE BEST THIS GUY CAN DO IS THROW MONEY AT US CITIZENS.,
WE REALLY JUST WANT A LEADER,WE PAY HIM BIG BUCKS AND WHAT DO WE GET. DISREPECT AND NO LEADER!.
Curious rumblings just before the US presidential election. Just sayin.
The Marine guards should have fired of the hoodlums. Our embassy is sovereign territory it would be the same as them invading this country. I'm sure the "Empty Chair" set the rigid rules of engagement probably removing the live ammo from the guards. This just a few days after we announced we are going to spend a billion US dollars buying submarines for the Egyptian Navy built in Germany. Obama should be impeached.
There are just too many Democrat slave holders in the House who will prevent Obama’s impeachment. Also, the Senate would never hold a trial because there are too many multimillionaire Democrat slave holders in that body as well. To keep their seats they need to satisfy the Sulzberger MSM Empire, bankers and other assorted Wall Street detritus like George Soros and make sure the people on the urban plantations just receive enough government handouts so they don't riot.
According to the MSM and the recent polls, there are enough people out there who are ready to reelect Obama. Let's hope this is just wishful thinking. This country couldn't take another 4 years of this Kenyan Communist and his Democrat-Slave party.
