A Greek police officer offers bean soup during an anti-austerity protest in Athens

A Greek police officer offers bean soup to colleagues in a symbolic gesture as he takes part in an anti-austerity protest, with other officers and members of police, coast guard and fire brigade unions, in Athens November 1, 2012. The soup offering represents the hunger that will come with the austerity which would force people to eat from soup kitchens.
