The UK riots proceed for a third day as stores continue to be looted and buildings torched.
The mainstream media is condemning the looters, as perhaps should they be, but are we getting a clear picture of just what is going on?
In an
article written today, Paul Joseph Watson of
Infowars.com asks "why are the mobs not congregating around Downing Street, the Houses of Parliament or Buckingham Palace, the real culprits of Britain’s economic degradation.."
Recently we've seen
Greek austerity riots,
mass protests in Israel, Middle Eastern protests and unrest and the earlier tuition protests in the UK.
With corporations like the
makers of blackberry offering to help prosecute rioters in the UK, and
UK government saying they will possibly arrest people for pro riot twits (When Iran was having its series of protests, twitter was hailed as a necessary democratic tool)
it seems that the riots are a symptom of a possible world wide class war, though I'm not so convinced that everyone on the street of London is on the peoples side.
