Anti-Japan protests in China

BEIJING, China - Protesters hold up portraits of Communist China's founder Mao Zedong and late Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping (center R) during an anti-Japan demonstration in front of the Japanese Embassy in Beijing on Sept. 18, 2012, the anniversary of a 1931 incident that led to Japan's invasion of China. There have been widespread demonstrations in China since the Japanese government purchased three of the main islands in the Japan-controlled Senkaku group in the East China Sea, which are claimed by China, where they are referred to as Diaoyu.
