Thousands Protest Bush in Austria

HeadlineJun 22, 2006

In Austria, at least 15,000 people gathered in Vienna Wednesday to protest the visit of President Bush. The President is in Austria for talks with European Union leaders. A group of protesters wore orange jump suits similar to those worn by detainees at the US prison at Guantanamo Bay. European leaders have used the meeting to call for Guantanamo’s closure.

  • Unidentified protester: “We don’t like Bush. We don’t accept Bush, Bush is just a killer, a murdere, he doesn’t make policy, he is just killing people for his interests, for economic interests, it’s mainly for oil, everybody knows it.”
