PFLP Politbureau communique
The following are exerpts from the communique
issued by the PFLP’s Politbureau in celebration of
the PFLP’s 20th anniversary.
We celebrate today 20 years of continuous struggle. Twenty
years of distinguished struggle in the PFLP’s theoritical vision,
political stands and closeness to the Palestinian masses. The
PFLP took an opposite direction to the capitulationist thinking
that the imperialist-Zionist-reactionary alliance attempted to
impose on our masses and the Arab region.
Twenty years have passed, full of insistant struggle for our
national cause and for achieving our masses goals of return,
self-determination and the establishment of an independent
Palestinian state.
Throughout the past twenty years, the PFLP has been a
stern defender of our just cause, and an important contributor
in our Palestinian people’s victories. Twenty years of con-
tinuous struggle by the PFLP to safeguard the PLO as the sole
legitimate representative of the Palestinian people, and to
combat all attempts of political elimination and containment
of the PLO.
Twenty full years of military and political struggle against.
the Zionist enemy and against all forms of political and
military attacks against our people and cause.
The twentieth anniversary of the PFLP comes at a time of
intensified imperialist-Zionist-Arab reactionary aggression
aiming at eliminating the PLO and the Palestinian cause, and
‘to expand the capitulationist trend in the whole region. And
this enemy alliance is taking full advantage of the declining
official Arab policies and of the spread of the capitulationist
logic of the rightist and reactionary Arab circles. The Jorda-
nian regime is taking advantage of the results of «Israel’s»
1982 invasion of Lebanon and the escalation of the Iran-Iraq
war, is continuing its drive to execute its capitulationist
policies, seeking to facilitate the proper atmosphere for direct
negotiations with the Zionist enemy under Washington’s
auspices. And in addition to its attempts to attain official Arab
blessings for its moves, the Jordanian regime seeks as well to
obtain a Palestinian biessing for them. While these political
moves were intensifying, the Palestinian people were confron-
ting great challenges and dangers.
In the occupied homeland, the Zionist enemy continued in-
tensifying its iron-fist policy. The confiscation of land in-
creased, and more settlements were established. The Zionist
intensified and escalated oppressive measures aimed at creating
suitable conditions for stopping our masses’ upgraded struggle
and to facilitate the progress of the joint Israeli-Jordanian
plans.
In Lebanon, the Palestinian masses in the camps have faced
for the past two years continuous aggressive wars aiming at
eliminating the nationalist Palestinian armed presence. These
wars have only weakened the nationalist Palestinian-
Lebanese-Syrian alliance, at a time when all confrontation
forms and efforts should be united against the US plans and
the increased US military presence in the region.
The resolutions of the Amman Arab summit have come as a
clear indication of the declining level of official Arab policies.
The resolutions of this summit, particularly the one concerning
relations with Egypt, have opened the road for a more com-
prehensive and dangerous decline. And this decline is clearly
manifested in the acceptance of the major Arab countries of
the Camp David trend and the bilateral solutions.
Despite this situation, the Palestinian revolution with the
glorious struggle of our masses outside and inside the occupied
homeland, has succeeded in foiling these hostile plans and
maintaining the role and status of the Palestinian factor in the
ongoing conflict as an obstacle to all attempts to spread the
Camp David trend.
Due to the efforts of the nationalist and democratic Palesti-
nian forces and the support of all allies and friendly countries
and forces, the unification session of the PNC was held and the
PLO’s unity was restored on a nationalist base opposing
imperialist-Zionist-reactionary plans. The reunification of the
PLO rehabilitated the PLO’s prestige and alliances, causing
the failure of all hostile plans.
In the meantime, our Palestinian masses have continued
their heroic uprising in the occupied territories and their con-
frontations against the Zionist-Jordanian plans and all at-
tempts to eliminate the nationalist Palestinian armed presence
in Lebanon.
The decline of the official Arab policies, the intensification
of the attempts to eliminate the PLO and the Palestinian cause
and the oppression of any uprising signs in the Arab region.
only necessitate facilitating the requirements of the com-
prehensive nationalist confrontation, which could be achieved
by the following tasks.
The first task requires the consolidation and strengthening.
of the PLO’s unity based on its political and organizational
program and the resolutions of the PNC’s unification session.
This requires the joint efforts of all Palestinian nationalist and
democratic forces to impose adherence to the PNC resolutions
and enact democratic organizational reforms in the PLO’s in-
stitutions.In addition to that the road should be paved for other
Palestinian forces to join the PLO. Achieving this task un-
doubtedly requires adherence to the political and organiza-
tional resolutions.
The second task is to continue the armed struggle against the
Zionst enemy. And consolidating the unity of the Palestinian
masses and institutions in the occupied homeland and to
upgrade the level of confrontation against the occupation and
the attempts to create substitutes to the PLO. The third task is
to expend all efforts to restore the Palestinian-Syrian relations.
The fourth task is to restore the role of the nationalist
Palestinian-Syrian-Lebanese alliance. And this requires an
immediate halt to the camp wars and to formulate the na-
tionalist Lebanese-Palestinian relations on clear bases. The
fifth task is to upgrade the level of cooperation and coordina-
tion between the nationalist Arab regimes and forces. The sixth
task is to stop the Iraq-Iran war through a peaceful solution
based on Security Council resolution 598.
The seventh and final task is to consolidate and strengthen
the PLO’s alliances, on the international level with the socialist
countries, at the forefront the USSR, and improve the level of
cooperation and alliances between the nationalist Arab forces
and regimes, the socialist countries and the peace, liberation
and progressive forces in the world supportive of the Palesti-
nian people’s just cause. - هو جزء من
