EU Times:  At least 100 have been injured after police clashed with demonstrators in Barcelona amid protests against the economic crisis and sky-high jobless rate in Spain.  Policeman swiped at protesters with batons, dragged then on the ground, and even fired rubber bullets on them Friday, as they sought to disperse demonstrators and also dismantle their camp in the city's Catalunya square, AFP reported.  This is while activists say cleaning the square was only a pretext to violate their democratic rights and have vowed to come back.  The situation remains tense and some 200 people are at the square and hundreds in the surroundings.  Since mid-May Spain has been witnessing nationwide demonstrations against the government's austerity measures and economic policies.  The protesters form part of the M-15 movement, which brought thousands of people to the streets ahead of Sunday's local and regional and regional elections.  Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero's ruling socialist party suffered heavy losses in the elections.  Massive protests sparked across Spain after the government of Zapatero introduced a slew of drastic austerity measures, including the cutting of civil servant wages as part of its plan to curb the budget deficit from 11 percent a year earlier to within 3 percent of the GDP by 2013.  Spain has the highest jobless rate in the eurozone with 21.3 percent and is saddled with a record 4.9 million people unemployed.  

My Comments:  Spain has been governed by a socialist regime and this is what always happens in such cases.  They have a 21.3 jobless rate and 4.9 million people are unemployed.  Barack Obama's ideology is socialistic.  The Word of God tells us that in the last days "...there shall be distress of nations with perplexity" Luke 21:25.  There were riots in Greece in March, with over 60,000 people in the streets protesting against the austerity measures taken by their government and economic failure.  There have been 52 documented riots throughout the nations so far in 2011 (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/list_of_riots).  The numbers have climbed drastically over the years.  For example, there were 21 riots in 2006, 17 in 2001 and 7 in 2000.  Can you see the trend?  Do you suppose we are seeing "distress of nations with perplexity?"
