Episode description

13 years ago, without any organisation, programme, plan or preparation, the Arab masses, in the words of Marx, ‘stormed heaven’. In a matter of weeks they brought down regimes that decades of petitioning by NGO’s and academic do-gooders could not budge an inch. The colossal state-apparatus, employing hundreds of thousands of spies, police officers, and army personnel, could only watch as the masses took over the streets.

In the context of rising tensions across the Arab world, Lubna Badi, leading comrade of the Revolutionary Communist Party, discusses the lessons from this exciting period of class struggle.
