Europe debt crisis rolls on as Irish bailouts grow (AP)

Police stand beside a cement truck which rammed the front gates of the Irish Parliament in Dublin Wednesday Sept. 29, 2010. A cement mixer has rammed into the gates of the Irish parliament in an apparent protest at the country's catastrophically expensive bank bailout. Police said they had arrested a 41-year-old man at the scene Wednesday but gave few other details. Written across the truck's barrel in red letters were the words: 'Toxic Bank Anglo.' It is an apparent reference to Anglo Irish Bank, which was nationalized last year to save it from collapse.
