ATHENS, Greece (AP) -- Police fired tear gas at demonstrators who hurled rocks and bottles at the U.S. Embassy in Athens on Wednesday during a rally against the war in Iraq.
Dozens of youths, wearing scarves and crash helmets, clashed with riot police. At least 25 were detained, police said. There were no immediate reports of injuries.
A downtown branch of Citibank was damaged by a firebomb, while protesters set fire to trash bins near the embassy. Two other Greek banks were also damaged.
The rioters, who also scuffled with rival groups of demonstrators, broke off from a peaceful protest by about 10,000 people.
Chanting "American killers," protesters carried empty white coffins daubed with red Arabic writing to voice their objection to the war in Iraq. They also unfurled a large banner which read "Hands off Fallujah," the central Iraqi city where U.S. forces are battling insurgents.
More than 6,000 police were deployed around the city and a helicopter circled overhead as the marchers gathered outside the embassy which was barricaded by riot police buses.

Well Rev9Volts,
it doesn't come in your mind that there were Greek people who were able to write in Arabic. Huh?
Those were Greek protesters, not Arabic ones, so nobody has to be 'send back home'.
