That's absolutely ridiculous. Every child in France knows that the PCF is
NOT behind the wave of strikes. When the strikes were coming, Robert Hue
and Georges Marchais were talking about the "constructive opposition"
(i.e. 50% opposition, 50% collaboration) of the PCF to Chirac.

You can say the PCF is "behind", in one sense : it is running after the
striking workers, behind them if you will. I know that by experience : I
was member of the PCF from june 1965 to december 1994. Since I've leaved
the PCF, I'm now a leader of the strikes in my high school.

Please read the papers I've posted about the french strikes. They are in
french, sorry. Sorry also for my murders of the english language. I do'nt
know english.

It's not easy to confront with Chirac, the french bourgeoisie, and all the
bourgeoisie of the Europe, you know. It's not easy to DRAG the PCF behind
the strikers, you know. A little more brotherhood should be welcome, you
know.

The leaders of the strikes, here, are the railroad men. I know them, I
teach philosophy to the childs of the railroad men. To write the railroad
men are depending of "bourgeois workers parties", that's not only a
logical absurdity like a "square circle party", that's an INSULT, are you
understanding ?

The french railroad men have not only build my country - together with the
"instituteurs" (teachers). They have introduced the revolutionary ideas
and organization in all the contry. They have fighted against the nazis
and thousands of them have found dead. My grandfather was a railroad man,
I've never seen him, because he was a "red", murdered by the pigs during
the big strikes in the 1920 years.

I don't know who you are, "Luigi". But I've an advice for you : never come
here to say that to the french railroad men, Luigi. Never come here to say
that to their childs. Never come here to say that to me.

That would be too dangerous for you.
