westvirginia Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 With European governments paring back the social safety net, and businesses blamed for creating a crisis, left-wing terrorism in Europe is on the march, according to a new report from EuroPol (the European Police Office). EuroPol: Spain, Greece and Italy reported a total of 40 attacks by left-wing and anarchist groups for 2009. This constitutes an increase of 43 % compared to 2008; the number of attacks more than doubled since 2007. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursa Majoris Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Percentages are often misleading...... In Greece, six left-wing terrorist organisations carried out a total of 15 attacks in 2009. Compare and contrast to the number of attacks by separatists and Islamists. Not trying to belittle this because one is one too many but given that these attacks are totally confined to countries that have just enacted austerity regimes to counteract their crippling debts, it's hardly unexpected. What exactly constitutes an attack, BTW? And Europe has lived this before with Brigate Rosse, Baader Meinhof, the IRA et al. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ursa Majoris Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 left wing terrorist = union member That makes as much sense as CEO = Nazi. Total and complete drivel. I'm willing to bet the anarchists who make up these groups are unemployed (and unemployable) to a man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm willing to bet the anarchists who make up these groups are unemployed (and unemployable) to a man. dmarc is painting with a very broad brush, yes, but have you ever seen a coal miner's strike up close and personal? They leave jack-rocks on roads on the way to the mine. They damage mine equipment. They visit the homes of men who cross the picket lines to scare his wife and kids to death. They shoot at folks who dare cross the picket lines. I've seen every bit of this first-hand. So yeah, dmarc is generalizing but don't make like it can't/doesn't happen with the "unemployable" stuff, because it does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's there job to be unemployed, the real blame should be put on those worthless working people, if they were paying there fair share of taxes these anarchist wouldn't be losing what they have been grown accustomed to. Europe need to raise the tax on the working slobs to take care of these people, my god, what's wrong with that country? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
