I was deeply shocked to hear of the sudden death of Andy Viner. I remember Andy as an active comrade in the Militant in the 1980s when he was a full timer in the industrial department in Hepscott Road. He struck me even then as an outstanding young comrade, very sincere, straight-talking and hard working. I never had any reason to change this opinion.
We received this letter which gives a taste of how the events in Egypt are viewed in Israel. It also explains that faced with the threat of a general strike called by the Histadrut, Netanyahu, once he had seen the events in Egypt, very quickly stepped in and made some significant concessions to avert the strike. It shows that Israel, like all other countries has its class divisions, something the Zionist ruling class would like to hide from view.
We received this letter from Walaa Quisay, an Egyptian activist, which highlights the dilemma facing all the Arab leaders, who, after the courageous movement of the Tunisian masses overthrew the hated Ben Ali, now fear revolution in their own countries.
