Greeks Riot, After Teen Boy Is Shot By Police.

http://www.csmonitor.com/2008/1208/p06s02-wogn.html http://libcom.org/news/rioting-explodes-across-greece-08122008 http://libcom.org/news/athens-polytechnic-occupation-publishes-communique-09122008 I am glad that direct action is being taken against the corrupt government of Greece. However I would urge passive resistance, rather than violent uprisings, if at all possible. Non-violence worked in India, against the British. And it should be tryed as a first resort. Governments should not be allowed to get away with killing there own people. But violence begets violence. So all efforts should be taken to prevent the turmoil from escalating. I wish the people of Greece the best of luck this Holiday season.
