After the death of Gaddafi: Revolution and counterrevolution in LibyaThe capture and killing of Colonel Gaddafi has been described in detail by the mass media in all its gory details. With the death of Gaddafi and the taking of Sirte the National Transitional Council is talking about forming a transitional government. The NTC is recognized by the imperialist powers whose interests it represents. However, many ordinary Libyans look with justified mistrust at the NTC and their imperialist backers.

201110-Libyan-Waha-oil-workers-demo-thWorkers at Waha Oil company have been on strike and holding protests for 7 weeks now. Their main demand is the purge of the top management of the company from directors whom they accuse of being stooges of the old regime. It is an example of class issues coming to the fore once the old regime has been put to one side.

Η σημερινή δεύτερη ημέρα της μεγαλειώδους 48ωρης γενικής απεργίας, σημαδεύτηκε από την ύπαρξη του πρώτου νεκρού, του 53χρονου αγωνιστή οικοδόμου Δημήτρη Κοτσαρίδη, που έχασε τη ζωή του σαν αποτέλεσμα της ρίψης ασφυξιογόνων από την καθιερωμένη πια αστυνομική επιχείρηση χημικού πολέμου ενάντια στους διαδηλωτές, στο φόντο της εφαρμογής ενός ύπουλου σχεδίου κρατικής καταστολής της απεργιακής συγκέντρωσης με τη συνεργασία χούλιγκανς και προβοκατόρων.

Il primo giorno dello sciopero generale di 48 ore è stato sensazionale. Oltre ai lavoratori del settore  pubblico che hanno partecipato massicciamente allo sciopero, centinaia di migliaia di lavoratori del settore privato hanno scioperato per la prima volta. Decine e decine di migliaia di commercianti  hanno abbassato le serrande dei loro negozi in solidarietà.

I dag, 19. oktober, den første dag i den 48 timer lange generalstrejke i Grækenland, var sensationel. Udover de offentligt ansatte, der deltog massivt i strejken, gik hundredetusinder arbejdere fra den private sektor for første gang med i strejken, og strejken fik følgeskab af titusinder af små erhvervsdrivende og butiksindehavere, der lukkede skodderne til deres butikker i solidaritet.


By Stamatis Karagiannopoulos

Situationen i Grækenland bliver mere og mere revolutionærs for hver dag, der går. Landet er blevet paralyseret af en strejkebølge centreret i den offentlige sektor og de statsejede virksomheder, der er arbejdernes svar i deres forsøg på at afværge disse monstrøse angreb fra regeringen. Denne strejkebølge blev foregrebet af massebevægelsen med besættelser af universiteterne og skolerne i september, der endnu engang beviste, at ungdommen er et følsomt barometer for klassekampen.
