UK Quran protests at U.S. Embassy
2005-05-20
LONDON, England (CNN) -- About 100 people have been taking part in a noisy protest over the alleged desecration of the Quran outside the U.S. Embassy in London. The protesters chanted "Death, death to the USA," "USA watch your back, Osama is coming back" and other anti-American slogans.

Many in the crowd covered their faces with scarves, the Press Association reported.
Musta been cold in London in late May ...
Al Jizz claims it is 200 people ... goes on to say:

More than 200 people have gathered outside the US embassy in the London to demonstrate against what they call systematic and institutionalised abuse of the Quran.

Muslim and non-Muslim groups alike heard former Guantanamo Bay detainee Martin Mubanga on Friday talk about frequent instances of disrespect for Islam's holy book during his time at the US prison camp. "The soldiers thought I was a dangerous man, a martial artist, so they liked to beat me to a pulp, which they did routinely fight me," the former prisoner said. Released in January, Mubanga was held in Camp Delta's Charlie Block for more than two years.

"This was one of the methods they used, throwing the Quran, my Quran, on the floor in my cell. This was in the first month at Camp Delta, but it is not something that stopped, rather continued and increased," Mubanga said.
Oooh! They threw it on the floor not the bed...oooh!
He's a real tough boy now in front of a crowd, isn't he.
