Are you saying there has never been rioting in the US, and there have never been petrol bombs thrown?
War! Never been so much fun. War! Never been so much fun! Go to your brother, Kill him with your gun, Leave him lying in his uniform, Dying in the sun.

I think he's saying it's incredibly ironic to have an anti-war protest and try to kill someone at it.

Udie we had some anti-war riots here too.  In SF people were pulled out of cars and beaten.

Indeed we have, but it's much like a Pro-Lifer assassinating a doctor who provides abortions.

I wonder, and am very proud off, that with so many protest marches in Germany against this bloody Iraq war and it's agitator bush all was friendly and peaceful.


Bush and his bunch would have loved to see riots here but there was absolutely nothing.

All i heard of was one american flag burning here in Berlin, but heh- that's only a piece of cloth worth of 2 $- noone was hurt :)

America was threatened by Iraq in no way, it was just plain ridiculous.

 No that's not what I'm saying, but I can't remember the last time a cop was fire bombed in a riot.  Seems to happen on that side of the pond more often.  The worst riot I can remember would be the Rodney King LA riots.

Why would Bush love to see riots?

The Stars and Stripes might be a piece of cloth to you, but to us, it sumbolizes much more.  I can understand, however, after that whole Nazi ordeal way back when, that you may be hesitant to treat a flag as anything more.

Fear not though, Blitz, youre in good company.  We can add Germany to the distinguished list of American flag burning countries.  Iraq, Iran, Syria...  When we have friends like you guys, who needs enemies?

I remember 4 students shoot dead by the national guard during the Vietnam protest marches.

Because it helps his propaganda machine to disparage all opposition to his evil politics.
