What is the most efficient weapon in the hands of people. It is a general strike that uncompromisingly halts all routines of our daily life for a moment.

What is the most efficient weapon in the hands of people. It is a general strike that uncompromisingly halts all routines of our daily life for a moment.

If the German IG Metall goes on strike it might have some devastating shocks on the economy.

If the Norweigian LO decides to halt all working by its large memberforce it might have some immediate effect on national scale.

When the Argentinian economy collapsed it had a severe impact on the Argentinian economy. But the jaws of the corporate policestate continues to clatch in the rest of South America.

In Italy general strikes have been announced and accomplished but their impact on the global economy is scarcely even marginal.

In order to have impact on a global scale we need to concentrate our effort on a global general strike.

This global general strike should be accompanied with a global massive scale netstrike where preselected companies would be targeted.

We should remember that this opens an excellent opportunity to arrange wide scale of activities simultaneously when the general strike is on. For example World Wide Reclaim the City.

Selfdefense against corporate onslaught.

Unless the inhabitants, workers, activists, anarchists, environmentalists
and all the other groups of people who keep up the struggle against the corporate policestate are able to achieve a global general strike,
much of the rest will be in vain.

Only a global general strike will have an effect on a global level.

We should also remain focused on the weakpoints of the system. Stock exchanges, banks and credit establishments.

Do not forget that the corporate media is along with the forementioned institutions the core antagonist of a more humane, just and friendlier
tomorrow. Hence, heavy activities must accordingly be guided against
it.
