Greece at a crossroads - faces civil war if new Austerity measures implemented!

Anger and violence have spilled over onto the streets of Athens - with police using tear gas and water cannon against Greeks protesting draconian new budget cuts. Demonstrators hurled petrol bombs - with more than a hundred detained - as the country's Parliament passed an austerity package aimed at securing the latest bailout.
