In the coming days, detractors loyal to the regime and the more quibbling moderates who deplore what the regime is doing but equally deplore doing anything to stop it, will try to tell us that the general strike today accomplished nothing- that business is already returning to normal and a one day general strike in one metro won't change anything in the long run.
