Stop TTIP and CETA Demonstrations in GermanyBy Zain Raza According to the organizers of the demonstration, these so-called trade and investments partnerships pose not only a threat to the economy and environment, but are attacks against the foundations of democracy in Europe, Canada and the United States. On the website of the organizers it states: Let us STOP CETA TTIP! We support fair trade and not free trade. Although the majority of Germans iscritical towards these agreements, establishment politicians favor them on the grounds that they will boost exports, economic growth and trade. The Social Democrats of Germany (SPD) led by Sigmar Gabriel are also in favor of these agreement, in particular CETA, and hence there was a strong focus of the organizers to influence the policy stance of the SPD. Organizers estimate that upwards of 300,000 to 350,000 people took part in these demonstrations. acTVism Munich was present in both Berlin and Munich to provide on-ground coverage.

Hope Germany follows the lead of some Australians and rallies to the prospect of removing itself from the UN. (James Corbett quips the UN is like the Hotel California, you can check out but you can never leave.) They admit these kind of numbers, it most certainly means there may have been millions. Thats really great to hear! The kosher media knows full well that nothing takes the air out of righteous/peaceful demonstration like feeling youre a microscopic minority well, that, or a bullet/Israeli trained cop nightstick or pepper spray..
