PROTESTS
Riot police used tear gas and batons on masked anarchists during mass anti-government demonstrations in France.
The worst violence broke out in Paris where 30 protesters were arrested. Anger also spilled over to Marseilles and Toulouse, where students attacked windows and bus stops.
Demonstrators were furious over government plans to raise the state retirement age to 62. More unrest is predicted tomorrow as France prepares for a national strike.
Industrial action has already shut down 10 out of France's 12 oil refineries, sparking panic fuel buying.
A police spokesman said: "Anarchists groups were leading many of the protests. Missiles were thrown and property attacked."
President Nicolas Sarkozy said: "If we must face a long strike, we'll do it. A part of France will be thankful we brought the extremists to their knees. We can win the battle of public opinion."

noted by us unions.
French students have always been capable of rioting - but it is distinctive that they are protesting over the retirement age. Already? They are worried about that?
That's spelled 'communists' (when it's not spelled 'moslems')
Try commie/marxist unionist.
Heard the Obama pep rally in Ohio state University? Sounds like he’s priming the engine. These dumbs a## college students are fodder for his next step. Lie after lie was told to a rousing applause and cheers from the crowd. He blamed republicans for the bailouts on wallstreet, credit card companies will be back to ripping us all off, the lies republicans are spreading about his healthcare intitiative, republican will not disclose illegal campaign funding. Next part of the plan is what these bastards are good at Anarchy.
Those anarchists are despicable! Luckily, they are usually small groups of deranged beasts.
Ever wonder why the French have enough time on their hands to riot 7 days a week? It seems like all might have retired somewhere around the age of 25. They really don’t know what work is.
Demonstrators were furious over government plans to raise the state retirement age to 62.No Yutes here.
proof they are none too smart they should be worried IF they will get any retirement, not at what age...
Maybe potential tourists to France should rethink their plans for some time.
“Anarchists” rioting because the government wants to raise the age that it starts giving them a pension for the rest of their life. There’s got to be a punchline in here somewhere.
Everyone can point and say what a bunch of morons the frogs are, and they are, but this is just the tip of our own future.
What do you think the leeches will do in this country if we try to pry them off the government teat?
Riot, burn, kill. Repeat until demands are met. It’s coming, and it’s bringing hell with it.
Demonstrators were furious over government plans to raise the state retirement age to 62.It's currently 60. The plan is to raise it two years, from 60 to 62. Put in the live rounds and open fire.
I believe Napoleon referred to it as “a whiff of grape”.
I think most of these rioters would go home very quickly if they ever thought they would be subject to severe and immediate punishment.
so-called “anarchists” are the violent shock troops of communists everywhere
they work to destroy public order and confidence, provoke police reactions in the streets, etc.
a so-called “anarchist” has a muddled, incoherent, idiotic melange of beliefs but their purpose in these street actions is to create crime and disorder, provoke police reaction, and hope that public confidence in the govt is weakened as the media pile on and attack the govt responses
Ah the French, when will they just stop sucking on cheese and get the job done./s
The same that are rioting in Greece and elsewhere in Europe.

Anarcho-syndicalism
A common Anarcho-Syndicalist flag.
In the early 20th century, anarcho-syndicalism arose as a distinct school of thought within anarchism.[78] With greater focus on the labour movement than previous forms of anarchism, syndicalism posits radical trade unions as a potential force for revolutionary social change, replacing capitalism and the state with a new society, democratically self-managed by the workers.
Anarcho-syndicalists seek to abolish the wage system and private ownership of the means of production, which they believe lead to class divisions. Important principles include workers' solidarity, direct action (such as general strikes and workplace recuperations), and workers' self-management. This is compatible with other branches of anarchism, and anarcho-syndicalists often subscribe to anarchist communist or collectivist anarchist economic systems.[79] Its advocates propose labour organization as a means to create the foundations of a non-hierarchical anarchist society within the current system and bring about social revolution.

In this photo from a December 11, 2008 Marxist.com article, the protesters can be seen giving the communist fist salute.
Marxist.com is obviously a pro-communist website.
And here they are with large red (communist) flags...
"After four days of struggle we can now start to draw some first clear conclusions. Without any doubt this movement deserves the title of 'teenager uprising'. We have here a new generation of tens of thousands of school students erupting in a huge explosion, the biggest for 20 years, if not even more, in Greece. We have clear symptoms of an instinctive revolutionary spirit, and a clear tendency to target not only the present bourgeois government but also the bourgeois state and the capitalist system as a whole."

The “masked ones”, as they are known, hold informal assemblies each day, where everyone has a chance to discuss where this “revolution” is headed. They even debate whether it is a revolution. “It is a social riot,” said another gate guard, “and it’s still going on. We don’t know yet where it will lead.”
