A little before in the evening the hooligans had pulled out then burned the American flag which was hanging on the frontage of the U.S. Embassy.
Mehmet Koksal, a Belgian journalist of Turkish origin, who filmed the scene, was severely beaten by the extremists howling hostile and insulting the U.S. slogans.
This demonstration would have a direct relation to the Turkish-Kurdish confrontation that has claimed lives of 12 Turkish soldiers are 23 Kurdish rebels.
As a PanARMENIAN.Net came to know from the European Armenian Federation, some 20 people were in the café at that moment. None of them was hurt. However, a policeman, who was at the site, is reported to be injured. - Panarmenian.net

Turks are a sensitive people, but when being confronted with history they are in denial. It is best in Turkeys interest to calm their people down since many Turks respect there government.
Turkish Extremists in EU
The behavior of Turkish extremists should worry not only Armenians and Europeans but first of all Turkey. This is disservice first of all Turkey's EU ambitions, and proves that Turkey is far-far away to be a European nation. It's better that today's Turkey takes steps to recognize the fact that their ancestors in the beginning of the century conducted a genocide to the Armenian people. Turkey is no better than Germany that did recognize the holocous quickly and is done with it.
