Clashes in Athens as protesters break into govt. building (VIDEO, PHOTOS)


RT: Austerity enraged protesters broke into a government building and threatened the labor minister, Wednesday. Riot police then intervened with tear gas, batons and pepper spray, with one person taken to hospital.
The protest, by a few hundred people, was organized by a Communist backed labor union, and took place in front of the Labor Ministry building. The protesters were voicing their anger by the severe austerity measures that have gripped Greece since the financial crisis took hold in the country in late 2009.
At least one person was hospitalized and two others collapsed from the effects of pepper spray and were treated at the scene by other protestors. The government said damage was caused inside the office of minister Yianni Vroutsi and threats had been made against the minster himself.
About 30 protestors were detained and scuffles broke out when the crowd outside attempted to stop the bus taking them to police headquarters from leaving. Some of the protestors followed on foot and continued their demonstration outside the police station.
“Violence in all its forms must be condemned, not only in words but also by actions. The raid on the office of the labour minister, the material destruction and the threats against Yianni Vroutsi are practices which aim to dynamite the political climate at a very critical time for the country," bankster/MIC shill government spokesman Simos Kedikoglou told reporters.

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange gestures from the balcony of Ecuador's Embassy as he makes a speech, in central London December 20, 2012.(Reuters / Luke MacGregor)RT: WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange plans to run for a seat in the Australian Senate in 2013, it has been confirmed on Wednesday. It is not yet clear how he will escape from London’s Ecuadorean embassy.
WikiLeaks representative Kristinn Hrafnsson confirmed to RT that Julian Assange will run for a seat in the Australian Senate.
A native of Australia’s Queensland state, Assange said in March last year that he wanted to bring liberty back to the center of Australian politics.” His Senate candidacy will help him defend free speech and the right of citizens… to live their lives free from state interference,” he explained.
After taking political asylum in Ecuador’s embassy in London in June, Assange expressed interest in the senate seat in December, when he said that he would run as a candidate as part of a yet-to-be-formed WikiLeaks party. He also called on to his supporters to stand with him.
Assange is expected to run on a WikiLeaks party ticket; If he cannot physically make it to the Senate, his seat will be taken by his running mate, the WikiLeaks wrote on Twitter on Wednesday.

'Saudi King overthrow imminent'

Europe banned Press TV: Saudi Arabia's monarchy has been holding strong for nearly three centuries. But according to former aide to the White House Bruce Riedel, recent geopolitical changes are leaving the royal family vulnerable.

Riedel is a senior foreign policy fellow at the Brookings Institution's Saban Center for Middle East Policy. He says that vast amounts of money have been able to keep violent waves of protest and demonstrations that could overthrow the monarchy at bay.

Hacked emails reveal US false flag plot in Syria

Britam-Syria-emailBy Dean Walsh: Did the United States government plan a ‘false flag’ chemical weapons attack in Syria, as a pretext for going to war?
Editor’s note: It’s worth pointing out that the rebels claim to have chemical weapons capability and have posted videos online allegedly showing these weapons in action.
One group of hackers claims that this is exactly what happened, and that they have the proof. Whether their claims are genuine or not is difficult to verify, but it certainly seems to fit the pattern of behavior which the US government is exhibiting towards Syria.
Hacked Emails
Cyber War News broke the story of a group of hackers who claimed to have obtained emails between top executives at the British defense firm Britam. In one of these emails the company’s business development director wrote:
“We’ve got a new offer. It’s about Syria again. Qataris propose an attractive deal and swear that the idea is approved by Washington,” wrote David Goulding to Phillip Doughty, according to the leak.
“We’ll have to deliver a CW to Homs, a Soviet origin g-shell from Libya similar to those that Assad should have. They want us to deploy our Ukrainian personnel that should speak Russian and make a video record,” Goulding wrote.
The abbreviation ‘CW’ stands for chemical weapons, and this seems to suggest that the US government, in cooperation with Qatar, were putting together a plan to deploy chemical weapons in Syria and record it on video.
Given that the deployment of chemical weapons represents the ‘red line’ which would trigger a US intervention, this would seem to be a ‘false flag’ attack in the planning, to justify sending American troops to Syria.
Why Would the US Want War in Syria?

Who Runs The World? Solid Proof That A Core Group Of Wealthy Elitists Is Pulling The Strings

By Michael: Does a shadowy group of obscenely wealthy elitists control the world?  Do men and women with enormous amounts of money really run the world from behind the scenes?  The answer might surprise you Most of us tend to think of money as a convenient way to conduct transactions, but the truth is that it also represents power and control.  And today we live in a neo-fuedalist system in which the super rich pull all the strings.  When I am talking about the ultra-wealthy, I am not just talking about people that have a few million dollars.  As you will see later in this article, the ultra-wealthy have enough money sitting in offshore banks to buy all of the goods and services produced in the United States during the course of an entire year and still be able to pay off the entire U.S. national debt.  That is an amount of money so large that it is almost incomprehensible.  Under this ne0-feudalist system, all the rest of us are debt slaves, including our own governments.  Just look around - everyone is drowning in debt, and all of that debt is making the ultra-wealthy even wealthier.  But the ultra-wealthy don't just sit on all of that wealth.  They use some of it to dominate the affairs of the nations.  The ultra-wealthy own virtually every major bank and every major corporation on the planet.  They use a vast network of secret societies, think tanks and charitable organizations to advance their agendas and to keep their members in line.  They control how we view the world through their ownership of the media and their dominance over our education system.  They fund the campaigns of most of our politicians and they exert a tremendous amount of influence over international organizations such as the United Nations, the IMF, the World Bank and the WTO.  When you step back and take a look at the big picture, there is little doubt about who runs the world.  It is just that most people don't want to admit the truth.

Niger reportedly approves placement of new U.S. drone base, armed missions are likely

By Madison Ruppert: According to reports emerging today, Niger has given the United States permission to place yet another drone base, in this case aimed at conducting surveillance (and, most likely, deadly attacks in the near future) on Islamists in northern Mali and the wider Sahara in general.
This is just more proof that the drone was has become perpetual, even though it is still not actually guided by any formal rules and even when a so-called “playbook” is established, the CIA won’t have to follow it.
Perhaps even more troubling is the secrecy surrounding drones and the fact that the Obama administration does not have to explain why they claim to be able to legally assassinate Americans. Couple that with the rapid development of drone technology including perpetual flight, incredibly powerful cameras, facial recognition, automated tracking systems and in the near future fully autonomous systems referred to as “killer robots,” just to name a few developments, and you have a troubling picture.
Now Niger is reportedly going to join the other African countries who play host to American drones, although officially speaking, the only permanent U.S. military base is in Djibouti.
“Niger has given the green light to accepting American surveillance drones on its soil to improve the collection of intelligence on Islamist movements,”

Apartheid Gulag Israel boycotts UN forum, first state in history to ignore human rights review

The Nazi style gulag called Israel has boycotted the UN human rights forum over fears of scrutiny of its treatment of residents of the occupied territories. The Israel regime is now the first in history to win a deferment of the periodical review of its diabolical human rights record.
AFP Photo / Fabrice CoffriniRT: Tel Aviv has refused to send a delegation on Tuesday to the United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva for the Universal Periodic Review procedure where UN member states have their human rights record evaluated every four years.
Israel’s cooperation with the council stopped last March after the UN set up a committee to inspect the effects of the Israeli settlements on Palestinians. 
Israel which earlier accused the United Nations of anti-Israel bias reiterated its stance, recalling that the council has passed more resolutions against Israel than all other countries combined.
“After a series of votes and statements and incidents we have decided to suspend our working relations with that body,” Yigal Palmor, Israeli foreign ministry spokesman, told the Financial Times. “I can confirm that there is no change in that policy.”
There have been more resolutions condemning Israel than the rest of the world put together,” an Israeli government official said on Tuesday, pretending that the damning resolutions had not been deserved. “It’s not a fair game – it’s not even a game.” he blubbed.

Frankrupt Damage Control "France Is A Truly Solvent Country, France Is A Truly Credible Country"

Tyler Durden's picture In a move farcically reminiscent of Inspector Clouseau, the French Finance Minister made an impromptu appearance on the BBC to confirm what we all should have known all along: that "France is a truly solvent country, France is a truly credible country." As the Washington Post notes, the oh-so-honest faux-pas that enfant terrible Monsieur Michel Sapin made yesterday - explaining how his nation is "totally bankrupt" - had French politicos scrambling today to recover their je ne sais pas. It would appear the crisis management approach taken is the repetitive Jedi mind-trick and of course we should believe Moscovici - even as France faces near-record unemployment, ratings downgrades, fiscal atrophication thanks to a plunge in competitiveness, and backlash among the elites at its increasingly socialist policies. "This is not the France you are looking for," and sure enough, now we believe them
We are sure it went a little like this...
Or perhaps they used this...

You know you’re no longer living in a free country when…

PhotoByKthread
By : Southern Ecuador - You know you’re no longer living in a free country when the government tells you what you can and cannot put in your body. Or when an unelected board of bureaucrats and corporate insiders can confiscate the assets of hardworking small business owners.
Yet these have become par for the course in the Land of the Free.
The latest bout involves a family-owned raw milk operation in Missouri that was decimated last week by the heavy hand of government, courtesy of the State Milk Board.
Of course, this isn’t even an actual government agency, but rather one of more than 200 such committees in Missouri which wield tsarist authority over their domains.
State Milk Board members include both state bureaucrats and corporate leaders from the milk industry. How convenient that a few big producers are given unelected, absolute authority to torpedo a raw milk competitor…
And so, last Friday, farm inspectors arrived to confiscate 18 tons of cheese that Morningland Dairy had produced from raw milk. They were met by a small crowd which had gathered to show support for the family… and to denounce these agents of government for carrying out an immoral act on innocent people.
It was all captured on video, including the police response.
