War protests erupt in Athens

Colin Powell cancelled his planned trip to the Olympics due to protests against his visit in Athens. Well done the Greeks.

The BBC article reporting the protest is a case study in slanted reporting: Locking up his newspaper stall, a man who gave his name only as George, told BBC News Online: "This is not what all Greeks think - these people have got no respect for our country." I think the reporter is putting his career before the facts.
