FULL TEXT OF FATAH POLITICAL PROGRAM AFTER IT WAS RATIFIED BY FATAH
CONFERENCE

As published in al-Ayyam Translation provided by The Jerusalem Media &
Communications Center

The political program said the continuation of negotiations without achieving real progress within a set time ceiling constitutes a danger on our rights and becomes foul play that allows Israel to use the negotiations as cover up for the continuation of settlements and consolidation of the occupation. The program defines eleven rules in order to engage in negotiations with Israel and outlined five options in case of the failure of the current dialogue with Hamas and ratified four steps to confront the
siege imposed on Gaza and talked about seven forms of struggle.

Fatah Movement rejected the alternative homeland in Jordan and refuses to sign any agreement that does not lead to the release of all prisoners. Fatah stressed on rejecting the principle of forceful resettlement or the calls for the alternative homeland: there wont be resettlement in Lebanon and there wont be an alternative homeland in Jordan.

Fatah stressed on serious work towards the release of all prisoners and we will not sign any peace agreement until all prisoners are released. Fatah stressed on the independence of the movement in the context of the PLO and the PNA.

The political program of Fatah pointed out that in order to avoid a situation where the negotiations become foul play and waste of time; we have to make sure that the PLO abides by the following rules in order to engage
in the negotiations:

1- To link the negotiations process with real progress on the ground according to clear and concrete indicators, mainly the complete halt of settlements especially in Jerusalem and to stop changing the features of Jerusalem and to stop the Judaization process of Jerusalem and these are two conditions that must be met in order for resumption of any peace negotiations; we need to ensure also that Israel end its incursions, arrests, assassinations, and the end of the siege imposed on our people in Gaza, and the removal of the checkpoints in the West Bank, and the withdrawal until the September 28, 2000 borders as a first step towards withdrawal until the borders of June 4, 1967; these are clear and concrete indicators that must be seen on real grounds and to link progress in negotiations with achieving the above mentioned steps and measures.

2- Negotiations will be on the basis of international legitimacy and its main resolutions (181, 194, 242 and 338) and in the context of the Arab Peace Initiative, as long as the continuation of negotiations meet our interim and strategic goals.

3- To continue work towards holding a new international peace conference that consolidates our rights and pushes towards quick negotiations that result in a peace agreement that achieves our goals.

4- To insist on setting up a clear and binding time table and a time ceiling for the negotiations.

5- To reject delaying negotiations over Jerusalem and the refugees cause or any of the final solution issues.

6- To reject the idea of the state with temporary borders.

***7- To totally reject recognizing Israel as a Jewish state in order to protect the rights of the refugees and the rights of our people inside the Green Line.***

8- To insist on international participation during the negotiations and on a mechanism for arbitration upon the eruption of a dispute when implementing the agreements and this mechanism should be binding for both sides.

9- To insist on international monitoring and an international peace keeping mechanism to guarantee the implementation of the agreement.

10- Our success in achieving our goals through negotiations requires a national professional committee capable of negotiations that will remain under the PLO supervision and to be monitored by a higher committee which
should include the factions and Palestinian competent figures and another Fatah Committee to follow up the negotiations and to submit its reports to Fatah Central Committee and Fatah Revolutionary Council.

11- We must head to popular referendum to adopt the peace agreement that will be reached through the final status negotiations.

Fatah defined five options that it will adopt in case the current dialogue with Hamas fails. Fatah said that the continuation of the split between the two parts of the homeland constitutes a threat to the fate of the national cause of the Palestinian people and Hamas bears responsibility for the continuation of the split; we have to move forward to achieve success in comprehensive national dialogue, mainly with Hamas, on the basis of ending the split in Gaza and the establishment of a national reconciliation government that organizes concurrent presidential and legislative elections and unify the security services as national services that protect the security of the homeland and the citizen and to handle the traces of the
split and achieve national reconciliation and release of the detainees. Fatah stressed that the failure of the dialogue because of Hamas intransigence does not downplay the importance and priority of the dialogue and its continuation, but forces Fatah to adopt alternative options:

First: To restructure Fatah Movement in Gaza as deemed by the current situation and provide full support to our organization in Gaza to confront the split.

Second: To push the cadres and members of Fatah in Gaza to reinforce popular action and mobilize the Palestinian masses to confront the split and dictatorship.

Third: To expose the measures of Hamas; these measures which are not part of our Palestinian traditions and norms, and the crimes committed against the Palestinian people.

Fourth: To demand Arab security support in Gaza Strip during the interim phase.

Fifth: To reinforce media action in the Arab and Islamic street to expose the policies and measures of Hamas.

With regards to ending the siege imposed on Gaza, Fatah outlined four steps:

1- to reinforce the steadfastness of Gaza in face of the siege and grant it priority in national support through the finances of the PNA and international; grants and to solve the urgent problems of Gazans who reside abroad (students and patients).

2- To launch an international humanitarian campaign against the siege and the attempts to cause famine in Gaza and to inform the world about the crimes against humanity that Israel commits against the citizens in Gaza and
to link the negotiations with Israel with the condition of ending the siege.

3- To start a process of gradual dismantling of the linkage of the Palestinian economy with the Israeli market, especially in electricity, fuel, gas, basic food items and replace them with Egyptian, Jordanian and Arab markets.

4- to work on implementing the international agreement on Rafah Crossing and try to develop the agreement in a manner that does not give Israel the chance to control the crossing or the chance to close this important crossing.

Fatah adopts all legitimate forms of struggle along with clinging to the option of peace without limiting the options to negotiations to achieve peace. Among the forms of struggle that can be exercised with success in the current phase to support and activate the negotiations or to act as alternative to the negotiations if the negotiations don’t achieve their goals:

a- To mobilize popular struggle against settlements and its successful modern form is the continuous confrontation in Bil’in and Ni’lin against settlements and the wall, and to save Jerusalem and reject its Judaization. We have the task to mobilize all citizens to engage in the activities and to achieve Arab and foreign popular participation and offer all support from
the PNA apparatuses in order to make them succeed and Fatah popular and official leaders need to lead the most important activities.


******b- To be creative in finding new forms of struggle and resistance through popular initiatives and other initiatives by the cadres of the movement and to stress on the determination of our people to remain steadfast and resist in accordance with the legitimate norms and laws.******

c- To boycott the Israeli products inside the territories and abroad through popular moves, in particular commodities that have a local alternative and exercise new forms of civil disobedience against the occupation and work to escalate an international campaign towards boycotting Israel and its products and its institutions through making use of the experience of South Africa.

d- To pose and discuss Palestinian strategic alternatives if it is not possible to achieve progress through the current negotiations, including poising the idea of the unified democratic state that rejects racism, hegemony and occupation, and to develop struggle against Israeli Apartheid and Racism or return to the idea of declaring the state on the 1967 borders and other strategic alternatives.

e- To continue tireless work towards the release of the prisoners and detainees and end the external siege and the internal checkpoints and achieve freedom of movement.

f- To return to the UN and the Security Council and demand that they assume their responsibilities in ending the conflict and ending the occupation and to continue work towards the issuance of Security Council resolutions on the basis of the Seventh Chapter of the UN Charter which carry the binding character.

g- To regain our direct and strong relations with the Israeli peace camp and reactive it to work for the sake of a just peace without confusing this with normalization which is rejected as a policy under the occupation.

So to recap:

1. Jersualem = Judenrein
2. Israel is not a Jewish state
3. Hamas must be exposed for their terrorist methods
4. To "mobilize popular struggle" and to be "new and creative" about it
5. No negotiations until all Fatah prisoners (many of which are convicted murderers of civilians) are released
6. No normalization of relations.

These are their own words. I copied the entirety of the plan and left nothing out. This is what Fatah, the "moderates" are planning to do.

No need for any pithy comments here - the text speaks for itself.

They are TELLING YOU WHAT THEY ARE GOING TO DO. Can you afford not to believe them?

I think you you missed something else of vital importance.

"2- Negotiations will be on the basis of international legitimacy and its main resolutions (181, 194, 242 and 338) and in the context of the Arab Peace Initiative, as long as the continuation of negotiations meet our interim and strategic goals."

The goal should be peace. But based on this wording (and in the context of past actions) it seems like they are saying that peace negotiations are only a means to an end and not the end itself. This sentence seems to indicate that the PA will continue the negotiations only as long as it gives them a strategic advantage in the pursuit of the other goals that they have.

So if peace negotiations is just a tactic, what is the end goal? I would look at Gaza as a glimpse at the Palestinian's true intentions. Give the Palestinians land and autonomy, and they use it to launch attacks on Israel, not to build up their own country.

How do you negotiate with anyone that views peace as just an interim method to strengthen their ability to attack you? How do you live side by side with anyone that views your demise as more important then their own future?

I stopped reading at some point and the recap made me feel like I didn't miss anything.

"We want peace. We also want you filthy kikes our of our country. YES IT'S OUR PLACE WE WON'T SHARE IT. BRING BACK OUR POOR KILLERS"

So, uh, yeah, peace in the name of political correctness.

Nobody would've given a damn about Palestinians if Israel didn't exist. Pali's only exist so the Arabs can have another chunk of land.

Imperialism?

NOOOOOO I'M A RACIST.

Hey man, Hitler published Mein Kampf, but the world acted shocked and amazed when 6 million of us ended up incinerated. For the most part it's only Jews who see this, and only Jews who care. Solution? Wipe out Fatah to the last man before they do it to us. World opinion be damned.

Elliot - at the end of the day it's still the same zero-sum game it always was. It's just that the enemy has become more sophisticated and learned to work the system almost as well as we did when we established our state. The difference is, at least we didn't slaughter our own people like it was the latest dance craze.

If ever you need to see what the future holds for a Palestinian state don't look at what they do to the Jews, look at what they do to themselves.

I would honestly be in favor of a Palestinian national homeland in concept if they could show me ONE person, just ONE person that had the ability to actually LEAD and act in a civilized fashion. Every guy they parade up there, every last one ends up either being a monster or a monster in sheep's clothing. It's DEPRESSING to watch who these people choose to represent themselves and expect us to have a normal conversation with.

Jay - you don't even need to speak in hypotheticals. "Nobody would've given a damn" ? No, nobody has EVER given a damn. It's a fact - you don't have to wonder what would have happened if there would never have been an Israel...you just need to look at what DID HAPPEN before there was an Israel and what CONTINUES to happen to Palestinians today in non-Jewish administered lands.

This is the single most horrifying, debilitating point for the pro-Pali camp...

Palestinian Arabs (both in Israel AND the territories) have suffered significantly LESS under Israeli rule than under Arab rule.

And that

is

a

FACT.

Shtuey - thanks for your comment. The problem today is that most Jews, especially in the United States just don't care. They don't. They failed to learn the lessons of the Holocaust and the Inquisition and everything else.

Whether it's nameless, faceless, self-hating Jews calling Israelis Nazis and acting as if ISRAEL is the problem.

Or ignorant actors/actresses who are more concerned with (usually Democratic) Party loyalty than self-preservation.

Or sell-out embarrassments who have no problem throwing Israel under the bus for ratings.

Everywhere you look, these supposedly enlightened Jews act as if everything is fine.

They so desperately want to be like everyone else, to have "normal" lives where they do not have to deal with the fact that right now, this minute, there several hundred thousand people (if not millions) all over the world - but mostly centered in the Middle East - dreaming up new ways to kill them, that they ignore history. They ignore the suffering of their grandparents and ancestors. They blank it all out in a desperate, pathetic attempt to fool themselves into thinking that if they just play nice, they'll be ok.

But they won't.

That's why it's up to Jews like you and me to educate the rest and keep this information in their heads. We need to be the representation, not these pathetic sell outs. It's a waste of time to even talk to these people like it's a waste of time to talk to Fatah and Hamas. It's the uneducated masses in America that are slowly disappearing in a wave intermarriage that are the answer.

Anyway, I didn't mean to turn this into a rant - glad to see you here on the site.
