As Athens Convulses in an orgy of violence, me thinks we have found who's stirring all of that trouble: Bowser, L'Agent Provocateur
The real caption reads:
But I wonder what you all have to say about Bowser.
Update: Our Agent Provocateur has been identified. Sometimes people call him Κανέλλος - Kanellos or Cinnamon in English, but his name is: λουκάνικο - Loukanikos. Sausage in English (my apologies to Cassie). However, he goes by the nom de guerre: Riot Dog and has staked-out a cyber-territory in Facebook and Wikipedia. As you can see, this rabble-rouser now has over 10,000 fans in his page. Any one wanna join? His Facebook Page: HERE, his Wiki entry: HERE, and his Histoire de Resistance: HERE.
Oh, and let's not forget about his requisite Youtube Video. Those Cuban Ché Revolutionaries, always in solidarity of downtrodden mutts...
or his posse of anarchist K9's. But that's another bag of fleas...

And all dogs are hooligans at heart.
I doubt that this dogs belongs to any of these punks, if it was my dog I would not have taken him to this "civil servants strike" where he could get seriously hurt.
Other than that, what John said :o)
And the occasional belly rub of course
"We are the goon squad and we're coming to town. Arf, arf!"
With apologies to David Bowie.

They stay on the sidelines, directing the rioters so the photogs get the best camera angles.
My father-in-law was a radioman in the Greek navy when the civil war started, and one of the most fascinating tales he's recounted is his escape from his ship just before the Communists in the crew seized control of it. He and several of his crew were permitted by the ship's captain to take a landing boat into Gaza, who allowed their "defection" even though he sympathized more with the Communists. They then spent the remainder of the civil war in a refugee camp in Gaza, which was still under British control.
BOQ...why is so many people from your island named after a plot of land?
Cheers
