Anti-Islam film sparks deadly protests around the world - 13 WTHR Indianapolis

The wave of anti-United States protests and violence has now spread from Libya to Sudan and from Iraq to Morocco.

In Iraq, the crowd chanted, ""America is the enemy of the people," with some protesters burning an American flag and others putting a flag on the ground and stomping on it.

The protesters are upset over an anti-Islam film that was available on YouTube and included cartoonish scenes of the Prophet Mohammed as a womanizer, child molester and ruthless killer.

USA - Remains of four Americans return

President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden have been visiting with families of the victims of this week's attack on a US consulate in Libya.

Obama and Biden joined Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta to express condolences in a private waiting area at the Andrews Air Force Base terminal.

Obama and his dignitaries were at Andrews to witness the transfer of remains ceremony for Ambassador Chris Stevens and three others killed Tuesday in Benghazi.

Also killed were Americans Sean Smith, Glen A. Doherty and Tyrone S. Woods. Doherty and Woods were former Navy SEALS.

U.S. officials are investigating whether the assault was a coordinated terrorist attack that took advantage of protests in the Arab world over an anti-Muslim video.

Tunisia

Tunisia's official news agency says two people have died and 29 others have been injured in protests outside the U.S. Embassy in Tunis.

State news agency TAP says both people killed were demonstrators, while the injured include protestors and police. TAP cited the health ministry.

Yemen

The US has sent a Marine team to Yemen to deal with the aftermath of the embassy attack. Protests continue in the country, but they are far from the US embassy compound.

Security forces fired live ammunition in the air and used a water cannon to disperse the demonstrators. Thursday, protesters managed to break ito the US embassy and burn several cars.

Sudan

The heaviest violence was seen in Sudan, where several thousand gathered outside the U.S. embassy. They tried to storm it, and Sudanese police opened fire on some who tried to scale the compound's wall. Witnesses reported seeing three people apparently dead.

India 

Thousands of Kashmiri Muslims in a region controlled by India protested the film, burning U.S. flags and calling President Barack Obama a "terrorist." In Bangladesh, about 5,000 hardline Muslims marched in the streets of Dhaka, burning U.S. and Israeli flags and calling for the death of the filmmaker.

Lebanon 

Anti-American violence has also claimed a life in Lebanon. One person was killed and 25 wounded in clashes between protesters and police. A crowd set fire to a KFC and an Arby's restaurant.

Police opened fire killing an attacker.

While the protests are going on, the Pope has arrived in Lebanon for a three-day visit. A local newspaper reports 5,000 military and security personnel are protecting Pope Benedict.

While in Lebanon, the Pope will hold two open-air events and meet with religious leaders. In addition he'll meet the country's Christian president.

Militants storm Sinai base

Also, a senior official with the international peacekeeping force in Egypt's Sinai Peninsula says suspected Islamic militants stormed their base near the Gaza-Israel border, wounding four officers.

The official says militants armed with automatic weapons broke into the base Friday, set fire to vehicles and are clashing with the force inside.

The official says it appears the attack is connected with wider protests in the Muslim world over an anti-Islam film produced in the U.S. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the press.

The bases houses around 1,500 multinational troops, part of a force put in place under the 1979 peace accord between Egypt and Israel.
