Gilad Atzmon is entirely right NOT to buy this infantile garbage. “Recuperation” and “damage control” are some of the oldest tricks of the political trade. Here it is revamped by some apprentice “perception management” dilettantes. It is childish, almost embarrassingly transparent.
Quote 1:
“The new generation wants change...most of the young people are all well educated....they see themselves as Westerners” . → Implying: old generation are uneducated, unfit for Freedom and Democracy, and to be “Westerner” instead of Arab is a sign of progress, modernity and liberation.
Quote 2:
“they gave us a book...how you have to proceed when you want to overthrow a regime...that book which is used by opposition movements worldwide was actually written in Boston USA (cheap Hollywood-style music change at this moment to influence the perception)...here is one of the intellectual centers of Democracy Activists.... non-violence is a method of warfare” → Undertone: The indigenous naïve and ignorant slaves are taught and given the tools...and the world is granted generously this incredible knowledge from...Boston USA...while Boston is in fact one of the most reactionary spot in the USA, and not the contrary. And then the cherry on the pie, “non-violence”. If this were the method employed to confront armed power-structures in the past, mankind would have never reached the social advantages of the 20th century, which are currently being stolen back by the same power structures, precisely because we the people have been hoodwinked to be disarmed and adopt “non-violence”. So let me get this right: non-violence is the method ordered to the oppressed who find themselves in the shooting line of a gun, while the oppressor's method is to pull the trigger. Fine revolutionaries these are.
Quote 3:
“...his new gadget for resistance training is a computer game that simulates the fight against the power of state”..... → you gonna be kidding me, this is infantilism. Notwithstanding thousands of years of human progress through struggle and fight, only degenerated Western morons can spew such "video-game" nonsense. I guess this computer game has mobilised 4 million Egyptians to Tahrir Square who practiced it for 2 weeks before the Revolution. May be Mohamed Bouazizi was inspired by the game before igniting the Arab Revolution.
