Italian police frogmen from a diving unit inspect the Ponte Vecchio bridge which spans the Arno's river during the final day of the European Social Forum in Florence November 9, 2002. Angered by U.N. moves against Iraq and fired with anti-Americanism, some 150,000 protesters were set to march through Florence on Saturday in what organisers called the first Europe-wide anti-war rally. Some 20 trains and hundreds of special buses began arriving in the early hours, bringing demonstrators from across the continent to a city that has virtually shut-down for the event.
