The protesters, chanting "God is Greatest" and "Europe, Europe, shame on you", smashed all the diplomatic mission's windows with stones and then tried to hurl petrol bombs inside.

Austria currently holds the presidency of the European Union. Protesters also waved placards and shouted slogans against the EU's stance on Iran's nuclear programme.

The bombs exploded in flames against metal grilles guarding the windows.

Further demonstrations were planned for later on Monday outside the Danish and Norwegian embassies in Tehran.

So basically Iran has attacked Austria? Sounds like an act of war to me.

When the war truly starts what will it be called in the history books? World War Toon?

"God is Greatest"

Actually they are shouting MY god is greatest saying their god is greater then any other.

Western media allows and defends putting our cross in urine calling it art.

Chris Columbus called the locals he found in the America's savages - hundreds of years later it seems most of the arab world has not moved forward.

I wish every one of these mo-ham-head worshippers would be evicted from Europe & every other place they inhabit.

Come on up to Dearborn, MI and have at it ;-)

It's even stranger that the BBC has shown the cartoons on most of their TV news shows and yet the Muzzies are attacking British Embassy's.

Muslims believe that their God and the Christian God are the same deity. They also believe Jesus and Moses were prophets from God.

Indeed. It's kind of funny, no riots or violence in the U.S., Canada or even in Australia (so far) toward Danish embassies.

Why aren't the police firing on these cultists?

The cultists are the police.

The Jihadi imams need something to stir up the goobers. These lard-assed imams are a scourge on the planet.

LOL..good one. These people are truly nutters. They already think the whole world should obey Islamic Law! Rubbish!

The Austrian police are Islamic cultists?

Don't these people have jobs? Shouldn't they, at the very least, be at their mosques praying? Maybe if they're rioting they're exempt from prayers?

I am starting to think that these imams and Iran are trying to start a holy war.

I agree. The whole thing is being instigated.

I do believe this is a sort of an intellectual 9/11 for Europe.

All this could have been avoided had Jimmy Carter done one thing - nuked Iran in 1979 when they took the hostages. He would have been re-elected in a landslide.

Yeah, I believe a jihad is a like a Mormon mission trip, only with firebombs and no bicycles.

Europes policy of appeasment with Islam has come to a logical conclusion.
