Hundreds Protest Obama in Stockholm

HeadlineSep 05, 2013

During President Obama’s visit to Sweden, several hundred protesters gathered in Stockholm for a rally against U.S. policies.

Protester: “I’m here for so many reasons. I mean, it would take the entire day to count them perhaps, but of course the use of the drone wars, the 'war against terror' that is really a 'war of terror,' the international spying that the American government is doing at the moment. Well, so many reasons to be here, really. And, of course, maybe as important, the fact that the Swedish government is the most obedient servant of the American government anywhere in the world.”
