Hundreds of Greek Leftists chant: "Condoleezza Rice Go Home"


http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20060424/ts_nm/greece_usa_rice_dc

ATHENS (Reuters) - Hundreds of Greek leftists marched through central Athens on Monday chanting slogans against a visit by U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice in a foretaste of planned mass action. The Greek Communist Party (KKE) managed to hoist a giant poster reading "Condoleezza Rice Go Home" from the central Athens Music Hall, right next to the American embassy and in one of the most heavily guarded areas of the Greek capital.

About three hundred protesters marched toward the embassy shouting anti-American slogans but were blocked by police with riot gear from reaching the building. Eight people were held for questioning, police said.

"Rice is not welcome. Her visit is against people's interests. It just heralds evils," the KKE said in a statement.

Rice is due to meet Greek Prime Minister Costas Karamanlis and her Greek counterpart Dora Bakoyanni on Tuesday as part of a five-day trip to Europe that also includes Turkey and Bulgaria.

4. If anybody knows an anti democratic shill when they see one
Its the people who invented Democracy.

What the fuck has Condi ever done to warrant her rise to such a high office?

After being a conservative "intellectual", she promptly screwed the pooch on 9/11 and then lied about the 8/9/01 PDB.

Then she went on TV pimping the "mushroom cloud" meme...witch turned out to be another lie and failure.

Then she was rewarded with a promotion.

make sense?

Asto thiavolo malakes!!!

5. Condi has the most important qualification for success in Bush-land...
She's a "strong woman"...like Karen Hughes, like his mommy...who VALIDATES him, who makes him feel IMPORTANT, and provides him with refuge from those who "do not understand him" (the other 98% of the people he encounters).

Read the book "Bush On The Couch"...all will be made clear.

2. Great, but notice the language...
"Greek Leftists"...As if you had to be a leftist to be against criminals, and to denounce crimes.
I would like it better if it said Hundreds of Greeks bla bla bla...

I hate the subtle ways propaganda twists the language to further its evil goals...

7. From the picture
looks like she's about to OD on olives.

I tihnk the Greeks were disappointed. When they heard that George's wife was coming to visit they thought it would be Gracie.
