Bürgerliche Presse in Deutschland dazu
Über die Proteste gegen den EU-Gipfel wird sehr wenig berichtet. Eigentlich tauchen immer nur 2 Stories immer wieder auf: 2 Autobomben sind explodiert und dies angeblich im Zusammenhang mit dem Gipfel und die Nacktaktion wird hier und da erwähnt. Allerings auf sehr merkwürdige Art und weise.
Der gesamte Text der Meldung (die ein Aussenstehender überhaupt nicht verstehen würfte):
Globalisierungskritiker haben am Rande des EU-Gipfels von Sevilla einen kollektiven Striptease hingelegt. Die acht Männer und zwei Frauen entledigten sich unter den wachsamen Augen eines großen Polizeiaufgebots und zur Erheiterung zahlreicher Schaulustiger vor einer Bank im Stadtzentrum ihrer Kleidung. Anschließend verharrten sie zehn Minuten lang nackt in stummem Protest und setzten sich bei Temperaturen von 35 Grad im Schatten der Gefahr eines Ganzkörper-Sonnenbrands aus. "Wir wollen damit zeigen, dass die Politik des großkapitalistischen Europa uns das letzte Hemd raubt", erklärte einer der Demonstranten.
