Riots Spread Across Europe

The whole world is a powder keg as billions realize that economic collapse has arrived and that their very survival is threatened.

In Europe:

Protesters in Spain, Denmark and Italy smashed shop windows, pelted police with bottles and attacked banks this week, while in France, cars were set ablaze Thursday outside the Greek consulate in Bordeaux, where protesters scrawled graffiti warning about a looming "insurrection."

One writer on the site london.indymedia.org exhorted people to follow the Greek example and "reclaim the streets. Burn the banks that robbed you ... It is a great opportunity to expand the revolution in all europe."

Some expect China to be next as economic growth slows because of a decline in exports:

Some 150-200 million Chinese have moved to the cities to partake in the new-found riches, the largest mass-migration in the history of mankind. A similar number is -or should I say used to be- expected to follow their example. Now, many are moving back to the family "farm", only to find the countryside massively polluted, with black stinking water, not enough land to feed themselves, and heads full of broken promises.

How long will it take till the Army takes over? And who will the generals support? The Hu's and Wi's who have brought the country into this mess? I would not bet on that.

The US is about to lose the largest buyer bar none of its debt, its Treasuries, all of its toilet paper. The people in power in China will now have to turn their attention to staying in power. One more game over, one more wall to fall.
