SUCCESS!!! The popular revolt in Greece against the draconian EU-IMF imposed austerity measures has taken a dramatic turn today as protesters associated with the All Workers Militant Front (PAME) occupied* the finance ministry at Syntagma square [#173], the scene of negotiations for Greece’s second ‘bailout’ package. Officials were unable to enter the building and had to work from elsewhere. The protesters also unfurled an enormous five-story high banner calling on Greeks to “organize and fight for an overthrow — General Strike”. [#8] Peaceful protesters have taken to Syntagma square for 10 days in a row now. It must be noted that most of those protests have been anti-ideological and many of the ‘indignants’ would not subscribe to the Communist ideology of the PAME. The occupation of the finance ministry comes right as the Greek government agreed on a set of even more severe budget cuts and tax rises, as well as the largest privatization program in Greek history. Anger is rising in the country as the population increasingly feels that their country is being sold over their backs in order to pay off illegitimate debts to reckless bankers in the European North.
