Political Statement
Issued by the PFLP’s Central Committee
(8th Regular Plenum)
On April 9-10, 1984, the Central Committee of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine held
its 8th regular plenum in which it reviewed all important developments and political events on the diffe-
rent international, Arab and Palestinian levels.
In particular the Central Committee discussed the signific-
ant victoriés accomplished by the Lebanese National Forces in
confronting the imperialist, Zionist, fascist project which aimed
at making Lebanon a bridge-head, through which a new link of
the imperialist plan was to be inserted, thereby aiming to
spread the policy of Camp David in the Arab region.
The steadfastness and struggle of the heroic Lebanese
people on the military and political levels, the stubborn and
heroic fighting waged by the armed National Resistance Front
in South Lebanon, the great victories achieved in the moun-
tains, Beirut and its southern suburb, and the decisive and
solid position taken by Syria and the national progressive
forces on the Arab and the international levels supporting the
Lebanese National Forces-made Lebanon a solid barrier
opposed to the imperialist, Zionist and reactionary plans. This
culminated in the victories of the Lebanese National Forces by
the great historic achievement represented by the abrogation
of the agreement of subordination and treason: the May 17
agreement.
The Central Committee of the P.F.L.P. deeply considered
this great historic victory, discussed its significances, and the
anticipated dimensions of abrogating this agreement and
emphasized the following:
First: The abrogation of the agreement came less than
one year after signing it, a great historic victory accomplished
by the Lebanese people, their national forces supported by the
progressive Arab and international forces. It represented an
important point in the development of Lebanon and the Arab
region. This great event reflects the victory of the Lebanese
people's will to fight against the outcome of the vicious
imperialist, Zionist, reactionary aggression which culminated
in the June aggression of 1982.
Second: The victory afflicted a defeat of the course of
Camp David in Lebanon, thereby to the US-Zionist-Phalangist
reactionary alliance, and it reclaimed nationalist Lebanon to its
natural position of confronting capitulationist plans, first and
foremost the liquidationist Reagan plan.
Third: The abrogation of the May 17 agreement is a tre-
mendous victory for the Palestinian revolution and Syria in
their opposition to the course of Camp David. It is a victory for
the Arab Liberation Movement and its friend and allies in the
world, in the forefront our friend the Soviet Union.

Fourth: The abrogation of the agreement is a defeat to the
course of the capitulating Palestinian right-wing who pro-
ceeded to accept the collapse of Lebanon under the
imperialist, Zionist and reactionary hegemony. After the
evacuation of the Palestinian resistance from Beirut, in particu-
lar, the Palestinian right-wing began to get closer to the prop-
osed imperialist solutions in the Arab region.
Fifth: This victory reaffirms the historic inevitability of this
epoch: the people’s victory and the enemy's defeat is inevita-
ble. It gives clear evidence that the plans of imperialism and
their allies are not fatal. The American ambitions to act
singlehandedly in the region, strike at the Arab Liberation
Movement and liquidate the Palestinian Revolution, are not
liable to be implemented except in a defeatist, capitulationist
climate, agitated for by the circles of Arab reaction on the base
of «There is power and no strength» in confronting America
and the Zionist enemy. For our Palestinian people and Arab
nation this victory puts forward the revolutionary alternative to
the cause of capitulation and subordination and reaffirms the
credibility of armed struggle and people's war.
Sixth: This victory reaffirmed the significance of the solid
‘alliance between the Arab Liberation Movement and the world
revolutionary forces, in the forefront our friend the Soviet Union
and all countries of the socialist community, which firmly and
decisively supported the Lebanese national forces, Syria and
the Palestinian Revolution in opposing the imperialist, Zionist,
and fascist plans for Lebanon.
The Central Committee of the P.F.L.P. reaffirmed that the bat-
tle in Lebanon is not yet over. Though the imperialist, Zionist,
fascist forces faced a great defeat, they will not simply accept
it. Through different methods, they will work to reimpose their
plans. This demands more vigilance, awareness and prepara-
tions and calls for deepening the alliance between the
Lebanese National Forces, Syria and the Palestinian Revolu-
tion to confront the coming aggressive plans. In particular, the
imperialist and Zionist circles did not stop their threats to wage
a broad aggression against Syria, due to its firm and decisive
position opposing their plans in the Arab region and its support
to the Lebanese National Forces. This position played an
important role in the abrogation of the May 17 agreement.
The Central Committee of the P.F.L.P. reaffirmed the
importance of joint action between the Palestinian Revolution - هو جزء من
