Nope, not the consulate. No embassy here, it's in Ottawa, our federal capital.
The American consulate is a large bunker-like concrete building which has over the past decade been made even more imposing and secure with huge concrete bollards around it (to resist truck-bombs methinks). No, this was just a house. Why the Stars and Stripes? Dunno. Maybe an American ex-pat? War resistor (that peace sign in the window looks very suspicious and communistic)? Or maybe just someone who wants to show solidarity on this somber day.
