Demonstrations spread over anti-Islam film
Protests in Yemen, Iran, Tunisia and Gaza now echo anger in Egypt and Libya
over film made in US that disrespects Islam.

Protesters angered by an anti-Islam film have stormed the US embassy compound
in Yemen's capital, Sanaa, as similar demonstrations have spread to several
countries across the Middle East.
The protesters on Thursday removed the embassy's sign on the outer wall and
brought down the US flag and burned it, according to witnesses.
A number of diplomatic vehicles were torched as security forces used water
cannons and warning shots in a bid to drive them out.
In the Iranian capital, Tehran, up to 500 people protested over the issue
chanting "Death to America!" and death to the movie's director, an AFP
photographer at the scene said.
The rally, near the Swiss embassy that handles US interests in the absence of
US-Iran diplomatic ties, ended peacefully two hours later.
Protect guests
Meanwhile, Egypt's President Mohamed Morsi has condemned the film that has
sparked an outcry in his country.
"We Egyptians reject any kind of assault or insult against our prophet. I
condemn and oppose all who... insult our prophet," Morsi, on an official visit
to Brussels, said in remarks broadcast by Egyptian state television.
"[But] it is our duty to protect our guests and visitors from abroad... I call
on everyone to take that into consideration, to not violate Egyptian law... to
not assault embassies," he added.
Egyptians have clashed with police outside US embassy in the capital, Cairo,
for the third day.
About 30 people have been injured, including more than 10 riot police in the
overnight clashes, as the fallout from a film ridiculing Islam's prophet
continued to rage on Thursday.
Police have used tear gas to disperse the crowd, as interior ministry said at
least 12 people have been arrested.
American flags were also burned in Tunisia, outside the US embassy in the
capital, Tunis.
Police fired tear gas at demonstrators who shouted their opposition to the
film, and chanted slogans against the US.
A small crowd also burned an American flag in Gaza City where Hamas, the
elected government there, has condemned the film.
Despite the Egyptian government's call for calm, protesters chanted in the
streets and fires burned.
Innocence of Muslims, the film that mocked Prophet Muhammad, was allegedly
produced in the US by a filmmaker with ties to Coptic Christian groups, and
excerpted on YouTube with dubbing in Arabic.
On Wednesday, about 200 demonstrators took part in protests in the Egyptian
capital.
They rallied into the night chanting "leave Egypt" but there was however no
repeat of the previous day's events when angry crowds climbed the walls of the
complex and tore down an American flag, which they replaced briefly with a
black, Islamist flag.
YouTube access
Meanwhile, YouTube, the video website owned by Google Inc, has said it will not
remove the film clip, but it has blocked access to it in those countries.
The prosecutor-general said on Wednesday that four people were being questioned
after Tuesday's events.
Nine Coptic Egyptian-Americans were also put on an airport watch list. They are
believed to have contributed to the production of the anti-Islam film that led
to the embassy protest.
The man behind the protests told Al Jazeera he just wanted to combat insults
against Islam through legal and peaceful means. Wesam Abdel Wareth, the protest
organiser, said his group was not happy that young people who joined their
protest brought down the US flag.
He also said there was no co-ordination with protesters in Libya, and he
condemned the violence there.
On Tuesday, Egypt's prestigious Al-Azhar mosque condemned a symbolic "trial" of
the Prophet organised by a US group, including Terry Jones, a Christian pastor
who triggered riots in Afghanistan in 2010 by threatening to burn the Quran.
But it was not immediately clear whether the event sponsored by Jones also
prompted the embassy events.
Obama calls
Meanwhile, US President Barack Obama has called the leaders of Egypt and Libya
to discuss security co-operation following the violence in Cairo and Benghazi,
the White House has said.

Obama urged Egypt to uphold its commitments to defend US diplomatic facilities
and personnel and called on Libya to work with US authorities to bring those
behind the deadly attack on the US consulate to justice.
Morsi promised Egypt "would honour its obligation to ensure the safety of
American personnel", the White House said.
Obama told Morsi that while "he rejects efforts to denigrate Islam ... there is
never any justification for violence against innocents".
Whatever the cause, the events appeared to underscore how much the ground in
the Middle East has shifted for Washington, which for decades had close ties
with Arab dictators who could be counted on to crush dissent.
Obama's administration in recent weeks had appeared to overcome some of its
initial caution after the election of an Islamist Egyptian president, Mohamed
Morsi, offering his government desperately needed debt relief and backing for
international loans.
Egypt is neither an ally nor an enemy of the United States, Obama said on
Wednesday.
"I don't think that we would consider them an ally, but we don't consider them
an enemy," Obama said in excerpts of an interview with Telemundo aired by MSNBC.
