Revolution = Guerilla Warfare methods

Do you agree ?

I don't think revolutionaries should favour one tactic or another. Capitalism is a multi-faceted beast that adapts to the conditions it faces in order to best suppress the workers movement and continue its drive for profit. The tactics that revolutionaries should adopt should also thus be adaptive, perhaps even more so, and at the root of it there should be a diverse approach to combating capital with a broad spectrum of support from the working class. Guerilla warfare is one tactic that should never be excluded but it is not applicable to, say, my experiences and conditions in contemporary Britain. At the crux of it, the working class have a power beyond military means - we have the power to ultimately completely take over and control the capitalist economy and dismantle it to our benefit - and it will take a variety of tactics with a broad strategy to achieve this.

So do I think !
Britain needs Guerilla tactics to shield the proletariat from the blows of Imperialist interest-based clashes

Correct -- this isn't typical inter-imperialist warfare, what we're used to seeing in history.

In *class* warfare if we as the working class decide to hide out in the bushes for the sake of stealth and ambush, the bourgeoisie would be laughing their asses off because they're still controlling conventional members of the working class inside their factories, making them work to produce shells and whatever for their offensives on the battlefield *against* militaristic members of the working class.

A proletarian revolution is mostly a *political* action, where the agreed-upon, coordinated actions of the masses can find no rival -- such solidarity would shut-down factories and workplaces and bring the bourgeois era to a close since the elites are vastly outnumbered by the numbers of those who have to work for a living and who also know the productive processes best of all, from collective experience.
