    It will be interesting, and maybe revealing, to see what the outcome of the political crisis there is going to be — to see how long a government can impose military rule against the wishes of an elected parliament and widespread popular opposition.

    Let’s see in full display the fallacy of the so called capitalist democracy. I have seen in full display how the rulers act under a martial law, the results are repressions, killings and jails. The so called illusion of the will of the peoples can be vanished in a few seconds

    Well, in the end “martial law” only existed for a few hours and then only on paper.

    The last capitalist government should take note if it considers trying to impose martial law in the event of a socialist victory at the polls. As should those who argue that the last capitalist government will inevitably try. and get away, with this. True, if they did try, it would last for more than a couple of hours but in the end the socialist majority would get its way as no government can maintain itself in power for long in the face of overwhelming popular opposition.
