Don't find them particulary exciting. I mean protest in general. People watching the demo, kids on their parents shoulders, people with flags. They are pretty much alike photographically and I find the situation rather "artificial". But when you have so much material, rather go for a smaller but better selection. Sure, there's more photos one wants to show, I just think the average attention span is short and the more quality, the better. Among the photos you posted I like http://blog.bertwynant.net/img/2008/10/bw_20081005_087.jpg and http://blog.bertwynant.net/img/2008/10/bw_20081005_065.jpg the most.

There were two demonstrations in Brussels on 11th Sept 2007. The SIOE demonstration was in Luxemburg Square but being banned was more or less reduced to a commemoration of the 9/11 victims. The Vlaams Belang demo was in Schumann Square where the police hammered them. SIOE is against racism, but it opposes islamisation.

Zalig! Ik heb der van genoten…
