When the doors opened, they came on to the bus and started to assault the non-Greek passengers. The attackers were wearing T-shirts from the right-wing extremist group Golden Dawn. While panicked people were trying to escape from the bus the men were hitting them with flagpoles. "They were beating people with the Greek flag," said Mr Roumeliotis. When the police arrived they stood off until the thugs had finished. When he asked the police why no one had been arrested one of the officers replied to him: "Why, did they do something to you?" |

User ID: 15511833 United States 05/04/2012 07:49 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Russia sounds seriously desperate. France and Greece have elections this weekend, Spain is falling off a cliff, Egypt is convulsing, and Syria could get far worse... Quoting: I have a headache 1539700 Just reading the headline stories from UK rags and it doesnt look good. The Russians are threatening to preemptively strike US missile sites (have they even broke ground?). Spanish unemployment is reaching unprecedented levels (yup, greater than the 1930s) with the regions threatening separation, and Greece too same prob but add to that it looks like Fascists are going to win a few seats in parliament, up from practically zip a short while ago (while they patrol Athen's lawless streets asking for papers). And news out of Syria is that the "opposition" could soon get hold of govt chemical weapons stockpiles. It almost seems quaint that HSBC US branches are being investigated for laundering drug profits to the tune of 100s of BILLIONS of dollars each year for the last few years--- I just feel things are spiraling out of control, or should I say swirling down the shitter at an accelerated pace... One of the biggest tragedies of human civilization is the precedence of chemical therapy over nutrition. It's the substitution of artificial therapy over natural, of poisons over food, in which we are feeding people poisons trying to correct the reactions of starvation." Dr. Royal Lee, 1935 |

Try to harmonize with the facts on the ground and discard all useless baggage, such as prejudices and ideologies that just make you angry or depressed. That in itself should inform you that your way of thinking (not you personally) is not helpful. |
