In an attempt to answer the questions of the current Palestinian national situation...
Written by: Younes Al-Amouri
Undoubtedly, the controversy is the master of the situation for the practical description of what is happening in the occupied Palestinian territories... Where opinions differed regarding the definition and the choice of the term that reflects the reality of the course of affairs, an intifada...? No uprising...? popular movement..? Or is it an angry public gift..?? An uprising in the making? Or are they individual, unorganized operational cases...?? Perhaps they are separate groups from the classical factional formations..?? It may be an angry popular situation and a loss of confidence in the Palestinian Authority in light of the deteriorating economic and social conditions..?? Or cases of escapism from the prevailing and ruling classic political approach to the system of concepts in the occupied Palestinian territories..?? And a strong political message that expresses the coup against the current Palestinian fragmentation and division....
The truth is that naming is not important at this stage. What is important is the reality of reality. This reality and its current facts must be recognized. The reality is that the West Bank and Jerusalem are on fire. They have been flaring up for quite some time, as the masses of people in all their categories are following the path of clash with the occupation, regardless of calling this clash the current stage, even if there are clear indications of an intifada, and if the experience of cloning and trying to apply the laws of the first or second intifada is inaccurate. Considering that each stage has its own titles and data, and therefore its challenges. However, at the same time, there is a fact that cannot be interpreted without its correct interpretation, which is that there is a strong popular mood to confront the occupation and its policies in the Palestinian territories in general and in Jerusalem in particular.
In short, it must be admitted that the situation is very explosive. Every incident, even the most insignificant one, can become a major strategic operation and an Israeli response that spins events out of control. In my opinion, the arena and its events and movement are moving towards the involvement and implication of everyone and shuffling the cards again, and the decision seems to be a popular, mass decision with distinction that expresses the general popular mood... Here, a frank and eloquent statement must be made, and one must confront oneself, and the points must be re-positioned. Letters, and we must shout, and we must reposition nationally.. Since once again the same equation is forced upon us. This equation simply says (to be or not to be).. Once again, the same challenges are imposed on the entity of the Palestinian national movement and on Its course and facts... Either it will be an effective national movement that interacts with the popular mass demands and works to achieve the people's goals of freedom, sovereignty and independence and protect their national gains, or it will not be...
There is no doubt that the national movement, with all its formations, frameworks, factions, forces, and the multiplicity of its branches and sources of its ideologies, is living today one of its most dangerous crises that threaten its foundations and existence in light of the advanced popular cry, and therefore its militant identity, through which it is supposed to exist for the sake of Achieving the popular mass agenda, and being an effective expression of it and its orientations, and being the protector of its aspirations and hopes and supporting its action, not being a burden on it and its action. Where the challenges have become imposed on all aspects of the Palestinian reality
This is what the Palestinian national movement is manifesting in the current stage, as everyone is wondering why the national action factions, specifically those who reject and oppose the methodology of the authority and the official leadership of the Palestine Liberation Organization, particularly those left, do not move to capture the historical moment and develop the current mass performance within the framework of a massive popular uprising Which means framing it, directing it, creating its tools, and programming it according to well-studied national, popular plans that pour into the furnace of resistance action in general...
The masses, while confronting the state of devastation and sabotage that our Palestinian reality is experiencing on various levels and fronts, where division and official indolence in the face of the occupation and the state of armistice announced by almost all, have begun to wonder why all this submissiveness..?? And why this suspicious silence..?? and indifference..?? Has the national movement and its formations become unconcerned with what is going on around it..?? We see it blessing and supporting the popular movement and the daily clashes with the occupation forces on the various axes of engagement... Or is the national movement now unable to mobilize its masses because it has lost credibility..?? Or is this movement not concerned with mass movement..?? As it has become depleted and depleted of the popular mass movement, its capabilities and energy, and employs it in the internal conflicts between its poles to achieve some narrow factional gains at the expense of the strategic national goals, which means that there is a structural imbalance in the course of national action as a whole, which requires programmatic formulation New on the scientific and practical foundations of the requirements and repercussions of the current stage in a pragmatic manner that serves first and foremost the higher national interests of the Palestinian people.
And we may need to re-title our national frameworks again.. In other words, we may need a new realignment that takes into account the nature of the fundamental changes on the map of national forces as a whole... That is, the Palestinian reality may impose new titles that are a result of the nature of the state of labor in which the cause is experiencing. The Palestinian leadership and the inability of its leaders and leaders, and therefore its frameworks and forces with their parties and factions, to achieve the Palestinian national project, which must take into account the calculations of regional and international realities and the laws of the liberation process itself.
From here comes the strategic importance of self-protection (and what is meant here in particular is the collective assembly...), which seems clear and obvious, given that the pillars of the national movement as a whole are threatened today by the verbal act, and must be threatened by such an act, as long as it failed to absorb The conditions of the stage, the conditions of assimilation of the other, and the completion of the consensual project away from authoritarian calculations. Palestinian political laws are completely different from all arenas, and laws cannot be imported and forcibly adapted to the Palestinian situation. The issue is absolutely not subject to the logic of partisan conflict (which may be democratic in form or violent in appearance) at the top of the authoritarian hierarchy, given that Palestinian law imposes a consensual state first on the basis that the national liberation project, regardless of the influence and influence of organizational sizes. It is not possible to exercise authoritarian action according to the laws of professional political action, as is the natural situation in the rest of the independent states, which enjoy independence and sovereignty over all of their soil, people and stones, and this understanding is the main cornerstone in building the Palestinian strategy, which relies mainly on the concept of national unity based on To the independence of the national decision first and foremost
I believe that the perceptions of the current Palestinian situation and its repercussions, which undoubtedly threaten the national destiny as a whole, oblige the factional organizational leaders to achieve a state of consensus and agreement to get out of the state of fragmentation and dangerous division in the geography of the occupied homeland, and to serve the national action of resistance in general and thus the uprising, and this requires an actual awareness of the laws of The stage of national liberation within understanding the Palestinian situation and its entanglements. The creative act of Palestinian political and militant productivity must continue, which ensures the restoration of the Palestinian identity and keeping it alive in the local and regional conflict equation, given that this identity is constantly exposed to obliteration, erasure, and erasure as a result of counter-policies that mainly target the existential equation of the Palestinian identity at all levels and levels. It is the basis and essence of the struggle. Rather, we can say that the accumulations of the struggle struggle of the Palestinian people have only tried to protect the national identity from extinction and to establish the Palestinian figure as a difficult number that cannot be ignored or bypassed in the equation of regional and even international conflicts, and all of this was done through understanding. A deep review of the facts of the various stages that the Palestinian cause passed through and its requirements, with many observations on performance and many negatives
The current circumstance that witnesses the state of division and bloody conflict on the Palestinian arena threatens the pillars of Palestinian existence as a civilized, militant identity that has been able to impose itself on various arenas, as mentioned above. Therefore, it is necessary to achieve agreement and consensus on the basics of the unitary program for all Palestinians, which must be taken into consideration. Programming coexistence between all sects, political sects, and leaders of factional tribes within the framework of the strategic goals of the people and their masses and their aspirations towards freedom, sovereignty, independence, and their right to self-determination and the shape and nature of their future state, and that these factions not be the guardians or play the role of guardians over it, as it is always capable to impose its facts and equation, and thus is able to reproduce itself and produce its living powers
So they are required to achieve the consensual state, and today the agreement is what is required and most urgent, which can preserve the dignity of the citizen and the country at the same time, after its dignity has been violated and has become in the wind, which is agreement on the minimum level of consensus on our various national and fateful issues. , which is drawing red lines and borders to stop the massacre that targeted the right to life by those who claim to be our representatives and leaders, which is what these patient, patient and crouching masses are calling for steadfastness under the most brutal and oppressive mechanisms of the century, which is the formulation of steadfastness in political expression that expresses the unity of the position And the fulfillment of what this people aspires to without diligence and cleverness with interpretation and interpretation, which is the demand to preserve the blood of the martyrs, the groans of the wounded, and the tears of the bereaved, which have always constituted a beacon for heading towards tomorrow, and it is the agreement that guarantees freedoms and the preservation of rights for individuals and groups alike, and it is the agreement of the rule of law In the shadow of the forest of guns, which is an agreement of creativity and innovation to equate the fighter’s gun embraced by the masses and that which formed a bandit, and it is an agreement to formulate the act of resistance again on the basis of the accumulated folklore.
I believe that the act of national dialogue, which is supposed to start again now in light of the mass popular movement, constitutes a final stop for the ruling political class in the occupied territories, which must agree and implement its project, which today has become a mass project and a broad popular demand. All of these leaders must fulfill the desires of their masses, if they are truly sincere and based on the concept of the requirements and aspirations of the mass movement.
There is no other way out for this leadership class but achievement and rearranging the papers again... I find myself here repeating from behind these masses the final say in this historical and critical chapter in his life, where the most important saying now is "If you do not agree, do not return to our facts." And stay where you are, kingdoms over your factions and organizations, and the people will inevitably expel you and produce their tools and leaders again.”...
