Quote of the Day (Sorry Long One but love it)

"Don't forget anything!
We have seen how when war broke out, the masses were captured for the capitalist aims of the war with enticing melodies from the ruling classes. We have seen how the shiny bubbles of demagogy burst, how the foolish dreams of August vanished, how, instead of happiness, suffering and misery came over the people; how the tears of war widows and war orphans swelled to great currents; how the maintenance of the three-class disgrace, the unrepentant canonization of the Quadrinity – semi-absolutism, junker rule, militarism, and police despotism – became bitter truth... The main enemy is at home! "~Karl Liebknecht

Hi Bassem, I am not the owner of this blog but I am a hardcore leftist (well, anarchist) in Lebanon and I was wondering if I could link to you on my blog?

Btw, a comrade told me about TYMAT but unfortunately I couldn't make it to the talk you had organized...

Dear Comrade Bassem,

I already keep an eye on your institution, and I am sure we met before, I will email you when I have the time. Hopefully this week or next next we will have a chance to sit and meet, I am sure we have a lot to talk, at least (worse case scenario) compare/contrast or views.

Comrade Anarchist Revolution is Coming,

Ca va? Come on, you have to love The German Ideology, it is one of my favourite books? I guess we will debate about it next week for sure :)

Cheers all

Eh, what do you mean? I should love The German Ideology because it's your favourite? :-P hehe... well, to be honest there are lots of things I disagree with in that piece. If you want, post something on it, and I will respond. :)

Fever?? You didn't have chicken lately, did you?

Hopefully you'd feel better soon. Sending some online hugs. :)
