Every year on November 17 Greece celebrates the anniversary of the tragic events at the Athens Polytechnic which led to the downfall of the junta. Each year on this date Greece is in the world news not for the anniversary but for the unrest the participants in the procession cause in front of the US Embassy in Athens.
