Dozens of Iranians angry over Israel's offensive against Lebanon tried to storm the British embassy on Friday, pelting the compound with stones and firecrackers.
...
A police cordon stopped the protesters, mainly conservative Islamists who numbered around 100, from rushing into a sidestreet to scale a wall into the embassy grounds.
...
One cleric climbed onto a billboard and spat on the embassy plaque after protesters ripped it from a wall.

"Our job is done this week, but next week we will carry out the corpse of that scum Geoffrey Adams," he shouted to the demonstrators, referring to the British ambassador.

1. Hey, I haven't heard of folks throwing stones for a long time! I'd

forgotten how much the ME seems to like to throw rocks, even with all of the high tech weaponry they have so abundantly. Cracks me up for some reason.
