Occupy Wall Street Protests Spread To Europe and Asia
The “Occupy Wall Street” protests that began in Canada and spread to cities across the U.S. moved Saturday to Asia and Europe, linking up with anti-austerity demonstrations which have raged across the debt-ridden continent for months.
Tens of 1000’s nicknamed “the indignant” marched Saturday in European cities as protests against capitalism and austerity measures went worldwide. Violence broke out in Rome, where some protesters smashed store windows, torched vehicles and attacked news crews.
Around 4,000 individuals marched through the streets of Berlin, with banners that urged the finish of capitalism. Some marchers scuffled with police as they attempted to obtain close to the country’s parliamentary buildings. In Frankfurt, continental Europe’s financial capital, some 5,000 people protested in front with the European Central Bank.
Within the Bosnian city of Sarajevo, hundreds walked via the streets carrying photographs of Che Guevara and old communist flags that study “Death to capitalism, freedom towards the men and women.”
Within the Philippines, about 100 folks marched on the U.S. Embassy in Manila to express assistance for the U.S. Occupy Wall Street protests and to denounce what they called “U.S. imperialism.”
