Thankfully the embassy staff had been evacuated earlier. However, I suspect that the fact that today is the anniversary of 9/11 is not a coincidence.

Some question about where the film that is said to have PO'd the crowd was produced in the US or was of Dutch origin. However, I suspect that doesn't matter. Another excuse to protest the US may have been irresistible.
I'm also pleased to see new Egyptian government's authorities on hand to handle crowd control.
