"Egyptian protesters on Tuesday took down the American flag from the walls of the US embassy in Cairo during a thousands-strong demonstration held to protest a short film produced by US based Coptic-Christians that critics say demeans Islam and the Prophet Mohammed.
A number of protesters managed to climb atop the walls surrounding the embassy, while others were able to breach the embassy's garden, where they removed an American flag and replaced it with another one bearing the Islamic declaration of faith: "There is no God but Allah and Mohammed is the Prophet of Allah."...
""Obama, Obama there are still a billion Osamas," they chanted in reference to slain Al-Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden."...

commenter references Al Qaeda flag on US Embassy grounds:

"Speaking of other people "doing damage to the case: these thousands of MB and Salafi youth who are protesting the negative image of Islam by raiding the embassy of a sovereign state, tearing up its flag on a day of national mourning, and then replacing it with the flag of Al-Qaeda."
