The British press repeatedly agitated against him, even styling him a "master spy of the Kaiser".

Fighting between revolutionaries and government troops at Risquons- Tout in 1848 By 1847, Belgium was suffering from economic destabilization as Belgian exporters faced increasing competition from new British firms.

In Ukraine, Kuban and Terek Cossack squadrons carried out pogroms against Jews, despite orders from Denikin condemning such activity. Kuban Cossack politicians, wanting a semi-independent state of their own, frequently agitated against the AFSR command. In the Russian Far East, anticommunist Transbaikal and Ussuri Cossacks undermined the rear of Siberia's White armies by disrupting traffic on the Trans-Siberian Railway and engaging in acts of banditry that fueled a potent insurgency in that region. As the Red Army gained the initiative in the civil war during late 1919 and early 1920, Cossack soldiers, their families, and sometimes entire stanitsas retreated with the Whites.

In 1968, they helped the United Mexican American Students (UMAS), Sal Castro, and other youth who met at the Piranya Cafe organize the East L.A. walkouts, called the Blowouts, a series of protests against unfair conditions in Los Angeles schools. Following the Blowouts, a group of students, school administrators, and teachers formed the Chicano Coordinating Committee on Higher Education (CCCHE), a network to pressure the adoption and expansion of equal opportunity programs in California's colleges.

Will Stafford was one of Helen Taylor's most trusted advisors.

The presidential inauguration of Hashim al-Atassi, seen here delivering his speech, in Parliament on 31 December 1936. However, by the end of 1938 it became clear that the French government had no intention of ratifying the treaty, partly due to fears that if it relinquished its colonies in the Middle East, it would be outflanked in a war with Nazi Germany that was brewing in Europe. Atassi resigned on 7 July 1939 as the French continued to procrastinate about full Syrian independence and the withdrawal of French troops, and public discontent at the delay boiled over onto the streets. Abd al-Rahman Shahbandar returned to Syria at this time and agitated against Atassi and the National Block for failing to secure French ratification.

On October 10, a majority of 59,04% of voters in the district decided for the accession to Austria, determining the border as it exists up to today with Slovenia.

In anti-Semitic laws, ordinances and decrees, the term "jüdisch versippt" is usually paraphrased so that it could be clearly determined whether "half Jews" (first-degree Jewish hybrids) were being referred to in addition to the so-called "full Jews". Radical anti-Semites agitated against their legal betterment and often succeeded in including the "German-blooded" partner married to a "half-Jew" in persecution measures.

Kissinger's Sino-American rapprochement offended the USSR, and Brezhnev then convoked a summit-meeting with Nixon, which re-cast the bi-polar geopolitics of the Soviet-American cold war into the tri-polar geopolitics of the PRC-US- USSR cold war. Concerning the Sino-Soviet disputes about the demarcation of of territorial borders, Soviet propaganda agitated against the PRC's complaint about the unequal Treaty of Aigun (1858) and the Convention of Peking (1860), which cheated Imperial China of territory and natural resources in the 19th century. To that effect, in the 1972–1973 period, the USSR deleted the Chinese and Manchu place-names – Iman (伊曼, Yiman), Tetyukhe (野猪河, yĕzhūhé), and Suchan – from the map of the Russian Far East, and replaced them with the Russian place-names: Dalnerechensk, Dalnegorsk, and Partizansk, respectively.Stephan, John J.

On his return from Siberia in 1917, Chernyi enjoyed great popularity among Moscow workers as a lecturer, and was at this time one of Russia's leading individualist anarchists and one of anarchism's main ideologues. He was the Secretary and leading theorist of the Moscow Federation of Anarchist Groups, which was formed in March 1917 after the abdication of Tsar Nicholas II and was primarily concerned with disseminating propaganda to Moscow's poorer classes. A personal acquaintance of Lev Kamenev and other leading Bolsheviks, Chernyi denounced the nascent Russian Soviet Republic at a rally on March 5, 1918, declaring that for anarchists, the socialist state was as much an enemy as its bourgeois predecessor and promising to "paralyze the governmental mechanism". A vociferous advocate of seizing private homes, Chernyi agitated against the state in the pages of Anarkhiia, the anarchist weekly newspaper, proposing increasingly detailed means of decentralized production and "complete absence of internal power structures".

Barrundia realized his mistake and had to leave Guatemala and move to Mexico when he was accused of embezzling large amounts of government money and threatened to face justice for the illegal tortures that allegedly took place by his orders. He went to Mexico, where he printed several pamphlets aimed as Barillas, which was used by the Guatemalan liberals to blame him for all the wrongdoing that occurred under president Barrios, while the latter's persona was idealized. For example, here is how liberal writer Joaquín Méndez describes both of them: Towards the end of 1888, Barrundia tried to return to Guatemala, but the public opinion was so agitated against him, that he could not reach Guatemala City and was forced to return to Mexico and there was public outrage in every town that he encountered. Then, in March 1890, he prepared an invasion from the Mexican border, but as soon as this became known, the Guatemalan Minister of Foreign Relations went to the Legation of Mexico, to call the attention of that Government to the matter; the Mexican authorities thwarted Barrundia's plan as they seized the arms and munitions of war which he proposed to transport into Guatemala.
