On the ninth anniversary of the Al-Aqsa Intifada, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine called for honoring the sacrifices of our people by ending the so-called "negotiations" with the occupying enemy and restoring the national unity of our people. In a statement issued on September 28, 2009, the PFLP urged a return to the path of intifada and resistance to restore our national rights.

The Al-Aqsa Intifada for Independence and Return, said the Front in its statement, erupted following the desecration of Al-Aqsa mosque by the invasion of former occupation prime minster and notorious war criminal and terrorist Ariel Sharon into Al-Aqsa surrounded by thousands of heavily armed soldiers. The PFLP urged that this occasion be used to pay tribute to the lives and struggle of the thousands of heroes, of martyrs, prisoners, and wounded who have sacrificed along this path of resistance and who continue to suffer from oppression, injustice and deprivation.

The Front warned of the danger of official Arab normalization with the occupation, including the rush to meet with leaders of the occupation regime at the same time that the occupation government expresses its racism and Zionist extremism by increasing its colonial settlements and providing maximum protection of its army and security services for the settlers and their attacks upon our people while maintaining a vicious siege onGaza. The Front's statement demanded that the Arab and Islamic leaders end their official silence while the entire Palestinian people and especially
Jerusalem are being exposed to the maximum of harsh attacks in order to undermine and erase the Arab and Islamic presence in Jerusalem and all of Palestine.

The Front also warned against any illusions about the so-called "negotiations" with the occupier and condemned any such negotiations, calling instead for implementing the national rights of our people, particularly the inalienable right of return and the release of all of our prisoners.

Furthermore, the PFLP statement called upon the leadership of Fateh and Hamas and all Palestinian organizations to act in the spirit of the Intifada and of the struggles and sacrifices of our people for over a century to break through the current atmosphere of disunity and end the vulnerability and harm that results from the division, in order to uphold the supreme Palestinian national interest. It urged the full rebuilding of PLO institutions on a democratic basis, and the holding of elections for the PA and the PLO in January 2010 in order to restore unity in a democratic way to strengthen the national struggle for freedom, independence and return.

The Front called upon international supporters of Palestine to undertake all possible forms of support for the steadfastness of the Palestinian people, to expose state terrorism and occupation, and to isolate and impose accountability upon the occupier, including bringing the occupation to justice for its war crimes in international courts.
