"Pope Benedict XVI landed in Berlin on Thursday morning about fifteen minutes ahead of schedule, but the city was ready for him. A 21-gun salute fired into the air as he stepped out of the plane, and protesters around the capital gathered for demonstrations in front of the Brandenburg Gate as well as the German parliament building, the Bundestag. Benedict was scheduled to speak before the Bundestag in the afternoon, but around a hundred legislators will not sit and listen to him -- choosing instead to stand outside with the protesters" (aqui)
