Pakistanis burn Obama effigy and US flag Updated: 04:36, Monday November 28, 2011

Hundreds of enraged Pakistanis have taken to the streets across the country, burning an effigy of President Barack Obama and setting fire to US flags after 24 soldiers died in NATO air strikes.

The Sunday rallies were organised by opposition and right-wing Islamist groups in major cities of the nuclear-armed country of 167 million people, where opposition to the government's US alliance is rampant.

In Karachi, the port city used by the United States to ship supplies to troops fighting in Afghanistan, more than 700 people gathered outside the US consulate.

They shouted 'down with America, stay away Americans, Pakistan is ours, we stand shoulder-to-shoulder with our army', while Pakistani riot police were deployed near the consulate.

Outside the press club in Karachi, dozens of political activists burnt an effigy of Obama.

In the central city of Multan, more than 300 activists loyal to the former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, as well as local traders took to the streets, burning US and NATO flags.

They carried placards and banners, and shouted 'down with America', 'down with NATO', 'Yankees go back', 'vacate Afghanistan and Pakistan' and 'stop drone attacks' - a reference to a CIA drone war against Islamist militants.

Our enemies have been laughing at us since 2008. The liberal fools that put Zero (-10 actually) in the White House have done this to us. The United States has been humiliated by the lowest of dregs which crawl the face of this earth.

We can save billions by giving them what they want: we’ll keep our nasty money.

Its time to get out of there...

Wait a darn minute! How can this be happening? When Obama the Messiah was anointed, he was going to usher in an era of world peace and the nations of the world that hated us because of that idiot Bush, would love us and be our dearest friends and the Russians and the Chinese would turn all their military hardware into playground equipment and no one would be hungry and everyone would have all the money they need...../s

My view? Get out of Afgarbidgecan and Poke-stan. Give them an ultimatum; anything,,,, ANYTHING that comes out of your countries, that effects us in any way, you have a 24 hour warning. You have 24 hours to get your people out of your cities, because, in 24 hours, you will have no cities, no roads, no bridges, no electric, no gas, no nothin’! Your infrastructure will be non- existent.

some months ago it was common here on FR to see a list showing the percentage of muslims in a country resulting in a level of muslim unrest through upheaval in that country. Can anyone help me find that list again?

Thanks in advance.

The effigy was wearing a t-shirt that said;

“I KISSED ASS AND BOWED AND SCRAPED
AND ALL I GOT WAS THIS LOUSY EFFIGY”
