Thousands Protest U.S. on Embassy Anniversary in Iran 
------------------------------------------------------


 
Thousands of people rallied in Iran on Monday in the annual
commemoration of the 1979 seizure of the U.S. embassy. The demonstration
was held outside the old embassy building, now dubbed the "nest of
spies." Protesters chanted anti-U.S. slogans in what was seen as a
rebuke of President Hassan Rouhani's pursuit of talks with the United
States and other world powers over Iran's nuclear program.
