Riots in London - Day 3

The uprising of the working class was evident today in the third day of civil unrest in London. Fires, looting, no-go zones left many sections of the city scheduled to host the Olympics next year in tatters.

Earlier this past week, Tel Aviv and other Israeli cities in turmoil as people protested en masse for lower rents and cost of living.

The Arab Spring has spread across northern Africa, the Middle East, and stretches into the heart of Africa-- places like Sudan, Mogadishu, Kenya. famine in Somalia leaves millions in wretched conditions, while Al Quaeda militants block aid workers and supplies because of their religion.

Syria continues to receive severe military crackdown on citizens day after day, as thousands protest the corrupt leadership. Several countries in the region withdrew their ambassadors today. The people want justice.

Libyan dictator Kaddafy relentlessly oppresses his people to this day, in spite of international condemnation and active military participation in support of the rights of the people.
