Aussie protesters interrupt speech by Rice
"Protesters twice interrupted a speech by US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice on Thursday after anti-war activists clashed with police outside a Sydney venue.
"Five protesters were charged when about 40 anti-war demonstrators rallied outside Sydney's Conservatorium of Music, which was patrolled by police on horseback and members of the dog squad.
"Inside, Dr Rice addressed students from several Australian universities and later answered their questions.
Just minutes into her address, a young man and woman were removed by security staff for repeatedly interjecting.
"Iraqi blood is on your hands," the protesters said.
