More than 100 members of some Hindu and Jewish organisations held a demonstration near the White House, urging new US President Barack Obama to take strong steps against terrorism.

Demonstrators demanded that Pakistan be declared a terrorist state and Iran stopped from making nuclear weapons that threaten Israel. The banners called on the administration to protect the world from “radical” Islam.
