About 500 Islamist protesters organized by the Scandinavian arm of the Hizb ut-Tahrir gathered outside the US Embassy in Copenhagen on Sept. 16, condemning the US presence in the Middle East and carrying protest banners. One said: "Freedom of expression, a means of oppression." A spokesman accused the US of creating an atmosphere of Islamophobia. A bag of military-type explosives was found on a Copenhagen street.
