Frankfurt - Germany - In flames

http://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/g...ity-ecb-protest-sees-cop-cars-torched-n325506

Hundreds of anti-austerity protesters clashed with police and set fire to at least seven squad cars in the German city of Frankfurt early Wednesday, officials told NBC News. The skirmishes broke out during demonstrations organized by the pan-European anti-austerity Blockupy movement protesting the inauguration ceremony of the new offices of the European Central Bank.

Eight officers were injured in the clashes, with 80 officers more receiving medical treatment for exposure to an unidentified "irritant," police told NBC News.

"The atmosphere is highly aggressive," police spokeswoman Tessa Koscheg said, adding that there were "several hundreds" of protesters.

Frankfurt Police posted pictures to its Twitter account of an armored vehicle and a water cannon being used in the streets. Barriers and barbed wire cordoned off the new ECB headquarters.

Some protesters spilled over into the city center and police said they were engaging with several smaller groups of demonstrators along the city's river Main and one of its shopping districts. "We are recommending to the public to avoid the city center at the moment," Koscheg said.

The ECB, whose new Frankfurt headquarters were due to open Wednesday, has been involved in implementing budget cuts in Europe's financially troubled countries, such as Spain and Greece.

"Communism Now" lol

Antifa, and other low-life commie dissidents.

Attacking police stations in Germany. Sounds familiar
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communist_International
The Comintern was involved in the revolutions across Europe in this period, starting with the Hungarian Soviet Republic in 1919. Several hundred agitators and financial aid were sent from the Soviet Union and Lenin was in regular contact with its leader, Béla Kun. Soon an official "Terror Group of the Revolutionary Council of the Government" was formed, unofficially known as "Lenin Boys".[21] The next attempt was the "March Action" in Germany in 1921, including an attempt to dynamite the express train from Halle to Leipzig. After this failed, the Communist Party of Germany expelled its former chairman, Paul Levi, from the party for publicly criticising the March Action in a pamphlet,[22] which was ratified by the ECCI prior to the 3rd congress.[23] A new attempt was made at the time of the Ruhr Crisis in spring and then again in selected parts of Germany in the autumn of 1923. The Red Army was mobilized, ready to come to the aid of the planned insurrection. Resolute action by the German government cancelled the plans, except due to miscommunication in Hamburg, where 200-300 Communists attacked police stations but were quickly defeated.[24] In 1924 there was a failed coup in Estonia by the Estonian Communist Party.[25]

The leftwing progressives at it again.
 
I work for a certain government department that monitors these trends and all I can say is that in late 2015 and 2016 the proverbial is really going to hit the fan. There is a reason the Eiffel Tower's homestead has a bunker. I'm not allowed, by law to say any more.

Sheer logic that it cannot continue the way it is.
Something had to give.
It's going to get a lot worse

Are you talking about this? http://m.news24.com/news24/SouthAfrica/News/26-arrested-in-Madibeng-water-protest-20150318
In other news, a man's head has been chopped off for R150 yet I don't see a thread about that. What is so special about the Europeans. Every time they let a wind the world jumps to attention yet major news near my home town get ignored. Do you chaps think that events which happen 10.000km away are affecting us more than the ones nearby? :confused:

Colonel Sabata Mokgwabone said 18 people were arrested in Maboloka near Letlhabile, north of Brits, on Tuesday for allegedly looting shops.

"Letlhabile police arrested seven women and 11 men for looting shops owned by foreign nationals, some of them were arrested inside shops."

What has the above got to do with the water problem? Just another excuse to do foreigners a discredit again.

Yeah it's worse than a war zone out here. thank the ANC for that. In the meantime world news are just as important to me as I am sure one day i will have to decide where to go once all the whites have to go. ;)

Now why did you not post a thread about the R150.00 chopped of head, then I can again point out about all the savages that have no value for life in this country.
