Follow Up : Pre-April the 6th “2”

These are the latest updates about the coming strike or the coming expected strike on the coming 6th of April 2009.

• The Muslim Brotherhood group has announced its position from the strike in 2009. They won’t participate. Well I am not surprised at all ,it is something expected from their part.
• The NDP has started its counter-attack on the strike from now in an attempt to make the strike fail from now.
• The workers  of land reclamation in 6 governorates announced that they will join the strike.
• The NDP launched its youth “whom I feel so sad for” to attack 6th April youth using the same weapon of the famous group which is the internet. They believe by opening couple of facebook groups like the following group “The 6th of April thugs and the illusion of Change “ they will persuade people not to support the strike

The NDP believe that its plan will be successful one, they used this method before with the blogs and they failed , they are forgetting that the people are not that stupid to believe their tactics , for God Sake we learnt by by heart !!

• The blogsphere is divided between those who endorse and call for the strike like Ahmed Abdel Fatah and those who think that it would fail this year like Arabawy for instance.

To tell you the truth I believe the 6th of April 2008 was a great change , it can be considered the first public strike in the history of Egypt. I can’t find a reason why we can’t wish for its success this year too especially that strikes became a daily sport in Egypt. Still I fear that the regime will work too hard this year to make it fail, last year no one imagined that it would be successful in that way but this year it is different especially with all those groups announcing that they will join the strike.
