Bulgaria: Violence against the protesters or against the protest?

http://balkans.puscii.nl/?q=content/bulgaria-violence-against-protesters-or-against-protest

On 14th January 2009 a protest in front of the Parliament took place. A protest for a better state, nothing more. Weeks before the protest there were so many rumors, that the radical left groups like the Federation of the Anarchists in Bulgaria (FAB), AnarchoResistance collective and also the students-pupils' movement “Priziv” were forced to distinguish from this event. As it turned out – absolutely reasonably.

The planed as a “nationwide peoples' protest” was practically occupied form a small group well known neo-nazi football hooligans, who more than an hour were trowing snow balls, self-made bombs, smoke bombs, were destroying the metal fences in from of the Parliament, beating with cops, journalists and event other protesters. Despite the calls for calmness from the organizers of the event this small group did not stop and the police did not react at all. After that because of orders from “above” the police “cleand” the square, beating up brutally everyone (including the normal protesters), instead of isolating the neo-nazi hooligans.

So far there are 154 arestees, some of the carrying knuckle-dusters, sticks, helmets and even stickers with swastikas; some others – regular students, beaten by the one repressive face of the state (the other we saw earlier: the paid neo-nazi football hools), who were at the wrong place in the wrong time.

The scenario is obvious. The goal of the oligarchic puppet-masters is to vitiate the protesters and to make the protest demos a privilege only for the paid unions and “opposition party” leaders. And against the unpaid normal people the state will use the arguments for the “violence during the protests”. Obvious for this plan are the upcoming changes in the law for protests and demonstrations, which will reduce our liberties for protesting.

The picture says "One and the same"
