Protests against US presence in Iraq

It's been two years since US President George W. Bush ordered the invasion of Iraq.

President Bush has used his weekly radio address to defend the decision, saying the war had made the United States safer and inspired change across the Middle East.

Many, though disagree.

Thousands of anti-war protesters have marked the anniversary by taking to the streets in protest. Major demonstrations have been reported in numerous cities, including London, Athens, Tokyo, and Istanbul.
