The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine strongly condemned the decision of the Higher Arab Monitoring Committee to support so-called "negotiations" with the racist extremist Netanyahu regime, emphasizing that this only gives cover to the Palestinian Authority, which pledged to the United States to return to these negotiations which are only damaging to Palestinian interests.


In a statement released on May 3, 2010, the PFLP emphasized that these negotiations serve Israeli and American goals only and not the Palestinian and Arab people, emphasizing that any such policy is destructive and deepens the split in the Palestinian arena. The Front's statement noted that this approach comes after all of the degrading slaps by the Netanyahu regime against even the PA, noting that any return to such negotiations gives cover for its escalation against our people and its policies of settlement and land confiscation.


The PFLP statement called upon the Palestinian people at all levels, inside and outside Palestine, at home and in exile, to reject these so-called negotiations, which serve only to attempt to humiliate our people and provide for the interests of the Zionist regime and U.S. imperialism.


Comrade Jamil Mizher, a member of the Central Committee of the PFLP, said that this decision by the Higher Arab Committee is a blow to the Palestinian national consensus against negotiations with the Netanyahu regime and its rapacious settlement policy. In a May 2, 2010 interview with Al-Alam television, Comrade Mizher emphasized that any return to negotiations means a reliance on the false promises of the United States, which sells only illusions and deception to the Palestinian people.


Comrade Mizher called for a serious stand by all Palestinian institutions to reject any such call, as it holds dangerous consequences for the present and future of our cause. He demanded an end to reliance on the US administration, which is a stratgic partner of the Israeli occupation, emphasizing the blatant racist actions of the Zionist regime, including the most recent military order 1650, calling for displacement and ethnic cleansing in the West Bank.


Comrade Mizher emphasized that this action reflects the bitter reality of Arab weakness in the face of the US administration, emphasizing that the US and Israel continue to plunder the land and impose new realities with impunity and Arab acquiescence. He demanded a complete end to the dead and stillborn Oslo course, after over 18 years of misery, and the need to build a political strategy that adheres to our people's fundamental goals and resistance against the occupation.

Bethlehem – Ma'an – No written or oral guarantees on a settlement halt have been received by the PLO from the US or the Arab Follow-Up Committee, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine said Monday, prompting the group to call for an end to peace talks.

The movement's Executive Committee further said no assurances were put forward as far as reference points for talks, making them a dangerous endeavor in which Palestinians had a lot to lose.

In its statement, the group called on President Mahmoud Abbas to "respect the decision of national consensus and refuse to bow to pressure," and ultimately postpone talks until such assurances could be made.

The PFLP said US promises "made for the media cannot be taken seriously" and do not fall within the PLO's decisions or national consensus on refusing to enter peace talks until a full settlement halt in land occupied by Israel in 1967 was achieved.

The decision by the Arab Follow-Up Committee to endorse entering talks "would only serve Israeli interests," the PLFP wrote, adding that the movement rejects all decision to recommence negotiations with Israel.



Responding to a second report, this time in Israel's English language daily The Jerusalem's Post, Hamas official Salah Al-Bardawil called the PA agreement to return to peace talks a cover for Israeli to "Judaize" Jerusalem, and mistreat of Palestinian prisoners.

The report was based on a news conference hosted by Israel Land Fund founder Aryeh King on Sunday, where the builder told reporters that nearly 200,000 new Israeli-only housing units are tipped for construction in East Jerusalem.

"If Jerusalem doesn’t expand, and expand eastward, it will become the Gaza Strip," King was quoted as saying by the daily.

A statement issued by Al-Bardawil said Israel's practices in the occupied part of the city ensure that negotiations will "encourage Israel to commit more crimes against the Palestinians and their rights."

Al-Bardawil further said Israel had "succeed in convincing [President Mahmoud] Abbas to press on with talks, which only lead to further land confiscation."

Abbas announced on Sunday that the PLO endorsed re-entering US-brokered indirect talks with Israel, sanctioned a day prior by the Arab League during a Cairo summit convened to discuss the future of peace talks.
