Greek farmers start protesting, while the students are still at it

[hugolp]

The situation in Greece is getting "funny":

Now the farmers are starting protest, while the students are still regularly protesting. I believe its been more than three months of regular riots by the students, and now the farmers are joining.

UPDATE : The greek army refuses to obey the greek goverment

This is a couple of weeks old, but I think its important enough and I have not seen it here. The original page is in greek so I link to google tranlator:

I am from the south of Europe, and I have asked some friends and familiars and this has not been broadcasted in any tv show or published in any newspaper. This is huge! and they are just ignoring it, so the population dont get ideas. This crisis is showing me how deeply manipulated the press is. Actually here in Europe they dont even talk about Greece anymore on tv. There is a EU member that has been rioting for months now, the population is suporting the rioters, the farmers have joined the riots, the army has refused to obey a goverment order, and its not in the fucking news!! I have just stoped watching tv and just use the internet. The press is totally controlled.

What do the Greek protestors want though? It seems like they want to protect their benefits and not make any sacrifices, based on what I saw in the other thread.

Yes, they want to go back to the good live. They dont understand the problem so they dont really have a solution, and repeat the socialist slogans that are so popular here in europe.

There are some libertarians there though.
