Rome, in
flurry of activities, Italy organized to honor the visit of US President Barrack Obama. Blinded
streets and 700 law officers to make ‘Emperor’ Obama’s sojourn in the city
secure.
Protests and manifestations were not
lacking. A menagerie of left and social groups made a march towards the US
embassy at the swank Via Veneto which was blocked by the police in anti-riot
gear about seventy meters from the gates of the embassy.
The manifestation was peaceful, with slogan slinging and speeches
lambasting US as interventionist and imperialist for her interventions in
Syria, Libya, Egypt, Ukaraine and the Far East.
One speaker paragoned
the event to Ancient Rome receiving the emperor on their knees- the emperor has arrtived
and the vassals (Italian political figures) genuflected.
The Filipino group was seen among the manifestors with a handprinted poster that reads "DOWN WITH US IMPERIALISM.
