The world has seen this 4 times this year in Greece.
Anti-austerity rioting broke out in Athens again...while eurozone leaders met in Brussels.
An estimated 40,000 protested in Athens...while tens of thousands across Greece marched...as a general strike shut down down all transportation...and many stores.
Vandals threw rocks and petrol bombs...and police responded with arrests.
