More Muslim anger in Asia over Gaza

Around 300 Muslims demonstrated outside the American embassy in Bangkok to condemn U.S. support for Israel in 18 days of fighting in the Gaza Strip. In Manila, around thirty anti-war protesters picketed in front of the Israeli embassy, condemning Israel for its continued attacks in the Gaza Strip. Protests have mounted around the world, demanding an end to fighting since Israel launched its air offensive on December 27 (2008).
