Protesters Gather Ahead of Bush Visit
A group that organized massive spring and summer candlelight demonstrations against the import of American beef held another protest in Seoul on Saturday, this time targeting U.S. President George W. Bush, who visits Korea on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Calling the U.S. leader the most dangerous man in the world, about 1,000 protestors denounced the Korean government's ratification of a free trade agreement with the U.S. and continued their opposition to U.S. beef imports.

On Friday, Seoul police warned they will crack down on illegal protests and if necessary use tear gas, which they stopped using in 1999.
