Thank you for posting this. I've been following the story in the Metro and AM newspapers in New York as well as Time and occassionally the tv news, but the coverage is spotty and has been slanted towards the authorities. Making it difficult for me to see why it happened and what happened.
This explains why the rioting is happening and what is really happening in Greece. The information that I've gotten states the kids set Athens on fire. There's even a photo in Time of the kids setting the Christmas tree on fire. Your post sheds a different and much clearer light on what is happening and why, demonstrating how easy it is for the media to manipulate the facts and that there is always more to the story.
