Viva La Revolucion!
In Greece, there have been violent protests in Greece continuously since March.
On one side, there is the anti-authoritarian left, in union with much of the working class and some of the middle class.
On the other side, there is the police, backed up by Golden Dawn - a group of neo-nazis. There is open cooperation between these two forces. There have been many occasions of Golden Dawn members throwing (poorly made) Molotov Cocktails at protesters. This often results into a breakout of violence.
The Government is going to extraordinary lengths to keep the word off the street. This includes examples of naval forces turning ships away at a three-mile distance from Athens.
What is incredible about all of this, is that there has been next to NO mainstream media coverage of this whatsoever. It's been "a bunch of anarchists are protesting" and rubbish like that.
In reality, it is a nation teetering on the edge of revolution. Yet we see a pathetic response from the mainstream media. If any.
Why is the media censoring this information? And who is controlling the media on this occasion? And so well that all the evidence is a few youtube videos, a prison-planet article and the rest in anarchist newsletters? Where is CNN? Where is Fox? Where is the BBC?
Also, will the announced upcoming elections have any effect on the rioting?
