Protesters stormed Sweden’s embassy in the Iraqi capital Baghdad on Thursday, according to several media reports.
According to the news agency AFP, the storming was short-lived, lasting about 15 minutes. The protesters reportedly left the building peacefully when security forces arrived at the scene.
AFP reports that there were several dozen protesters who entered the building in protest of the Quran burning in central Stockholm on Wednesday.
The Swedish Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated to SVT that all embassy personnel are safe.
I guess freedom of speech can be hard to understand when you lack thereof.
I wish more people would burn quran or depict Muhammad. Eventually they will have to give up trying to control everyone. Not hating on the religion, just the radicals…
I don’t care what book it is, if it’s your book, you should be allowed to do whatever you want with it, if you wanna burn it in public and the police can guarantee your safety, then go ahead. It’s not what book it is for me.
