PLO Statement on the Intifada The PLO Executive Committee emphasizes the need to continue to develop all forms of revolutionary cohesion, empathy, and support by the groupings of our Palestinian people outside the homeland for the blessed popular uprising and harness all struggle, political, media, and material capabilities and resources for that purpose on the Palestinian, Arab, and international levels. Our heroic and faithful people have shown that these crimes can never weaken their escalating resistance or extinguish the flame of the uprising which is shaking the earth under the feet of the occupants and invaders. All of our people proved that the banner of jihad will continue to fly high [words indistinct] with our blood, the souls of our martyrs, our captives, wounded, and detainees until the establishment of our independent state and the liberation of the precious soil of our homeland from the aggression and occupation of the Zionists. www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org /jsource/History/PLOstatement88.html   (9079 words)

SAHARA PRESSE SERVICE "Consequently, we call all the countries of the world, which still did not do it, to recognise the Saharawi Arab Democratic Republic (SADR) because it is the real representative of the will of the Saharawi people", he said. This position "also hinders the edification of the Maghreb Arab Union and hinders the consent of its peoples", he underlined. It should be noted that the dinner offered on the honour of the President of the Republic, Mohamed Abdelaziz, comes within the framework of the "week of friendship and solidarity with the Saharawi people", which is held in Algiers from the 3rd to the 10th August. www.spsrasd.info /sps-e100804.html   (9079 words)

Aljazeera.Net - Arab political reform in disarray Arab plans often neglect the people factor, at least the people's right to being consulted on matters that will affect every major aspect of their lives. Moreover, while Arab leaders try to bridge their differences on the issue of reforms, their people have been drifting in the opposite direction, doubting the value of organisations such as the Arab League. What kind of a road map can Arab leaders provide for their people while they are presiding over stagnant economies and when there are no guarantees of human rights, women's rights and the rights of religious monitories? english.aljazeera.net /NR/exeres/CCE95D8D-1F4C-4F7C-A172-083B474EE245.htm   (1104 words)

A/43/827-S/20278 of 18 November 1988 To the spirits of our righteous martyrs, to the masses of our Palestinian Arab people and our Arab nation and to all free and honourable men, we give our solemn pledge to continue the struggle for an end to the occupation and the establishment of sovereignty and independence. Despite this falsification of history, the international community, in article 22 of the Covenant of the League of Nations of 1919 and in the Lausanne Treaty of 1923, recognized that the Palestinian Arab people was no different from the other Arab peoples detached from the Ottoman State and was a free and independent people. Founding itself on a belief in inalienable rights, on the Arab national consensus and on international legitimacy, the Palestine Liberation Organization has assumed leadership in the battles of a great people fused in an exemplary national unity and in a legendary and steadfast resistance to carnage and encirclement within its homeland and outside. domino.un.org /unispal.nsf/561c6ee353d740fb8525607d00581829/6eb54a389e2da6c6852560de0070e392!OpenDocument   (1104 words)

Zionism and Israel, A Jewish Palestine - 1919 - H. Sacher The idea of Judaism is inseparable from the idea of the Jewish people, and the idea of the Jewish people is inseparable from the idea of the Jewish land. THE determination of the Jewish people to recover a normal national life never limited itself to faith in a miraculous restoration independent of the effort of the Jews themselves, although the conviction that the restoration was certain to come one day was part of the faith of every Jew. The Jewish people again demand that the development of the natural resources of the country shall not pass to alien capitalists, but shall be entrusted to the Jewish Council, representing and working on behalf of the Jewish people. www.zionism-israel.com /zionism_sacher.htm   (5715 words)

93087: Egypt-United States Relations Egypt remained isolated from the Arabs, except for Sudan and Oman, because of the Israeli treaty, until Egypt opposed the June 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon. Egypt's return to the Arab League, the end of Soviet patronage for several Arab states, Egypt's role as a facilitator for the peace talks, and Egypt's traditional central position have restored Egypt as the Arab leader. Egypt, because of its central position, large population, and national and intellectual voice, had been the modern leader of the Arab world until March 1979, when the Arab League voted to expel Egypt because it had signed the peace treaty with Israel. www.fas.org /man/crs/93-087.htm   (6460 words)

The British Record on Partition On January 19, C. Evans, the District Commissioner for the Galilee District, wrote to the Chief Secretary of Palestine, Sir Henry Guerney, that the training of the Arab Liberation army is by European volunteers and that, in fact, one of the incursions was led by a German officer. It was at this meeting that the formation of a so-called volunteer force for the liberation of Palestine was decided upon, as against the use of regular troops of the Arab governments. Of course, if this story is false, if in 1948 the Arab armies fought for genocide, not National Liberation, and if it was not the Jews but Arab leaders who were agents of imperial Britain, then it certainly suggests that their protégés are not fighting for National Liberation today. emperor.vwh.net /history/br.htm   (13305 words)

The Arabic Student Organization: A.S.O.: Did You Know? - Stereotypes However, it is inaccurate to assume that, because people are Arab or Arab American, they are involved in terrorism or, when an attack occurs, that Arabs must be behind it. Bedouins, nomadic people depicted in movies, make up only about 2 percent of Arab people. High-profile attacks have brought U.S. attention on terrorists in or from the Middle East, and the U.S. State Department has identified many groups with Arab connections. www.montclair.edu /orgs/aso/arab10.html   (463 words)

Arab Arabs are first mentioned in writing in an Assyrian inscription of 853 BC, where Shalmaneser III lists a King Gindibu of matu arbaai (Arab land) as among the people he defeated at the Battle of Karkar. In Islamic and Jewish tradition, Arabs are a Semitic people who trace their ancestry from Ishmael, a son of the ancient patriarch Abraham and Hagar. Most people who consider themselves Arabs do so on the basis of the overlap of the political and linguistic definitions, but some members of groups which fulfill both criteria reject the identity on the basis of the genealogical definition. www.wikiverse.org /arab   (463 words)

Arab Arabs are first mentioned in writing in an Assyrian inscription of 853 BC, where Shalmaneser III lists a King Gindibu of matu arbaai (Arab land) as among the people he defeated at the Battle of Karkar. Not many people consider themselves Arab on the basis of the political definition without the linguistic one—thus, Kurds or Berbers usually identify themselves as non-Arab—but some do (for instance, some Berbers do consider themselves Arabs and Arab nationalists saw the Kurds as Arabs).

CATALONIA : The origin of the name But the fact is that this part of the peninsula was never really under full control by the arabs, which had to face continuous wars with the local people (helped by the Francs). Guiter concludes his theory by saying that in those times, very few people could read and write, and most of the knowledege was passed from father to son by word of mouth; therefore it is very possible that the word "calatans", by confusion, and by word to mouth, became "catalans". During the the IX century, with the start of the "Reconquesta" (the holy war to reconquer the territory occupied by the arabs), the catalan land was the first to recover its territory from the arabs, and for almost two centuries was the only region in the entire iberian peninsula not being under arab accupation. www.catalonia.8k.com   (2102 words)

CAUSES OF ANTI-AMERICANISM IN THE ARAB WORLD Arab regimes can deny their people democracy, but cannot prevent them from joining Islamic organizations or becoming more religious, since to do so would be interpreted as hostility towards Islam. Lastly, American economic and military aid to several Arab countries is seen as an American effort to enable some undemocratic regimes to continue their rule and suppress their people, rather than the U.S. intending to help development, democracy, or improve the social and economic well being of those countries' citizens. He called for jihad against the United States stating as his primary reason, "The very presence of the United States occupying the Land of Islam in the holiest of places in the Arabian Peninsula where America is plundering its riches, dictating to its rulers, and humiliating its people."(17) meria.idc.ac.il /journal/2003/issue4/jv7n4a6.html   (4960 words)

DSS Hubris: Arab Nationalism Arabs have local and national concerns like any other people, and they are increasingly self-identified as citizens of their countries rather than as Arabs, or even their religious identities. We are finding out that despite historical claims by Syria, the people of Lebanon do not see themselves as lost cousins of the Syrians, but an independent people. Events are proving that the idea of national permanence has taken root, despite the artificial nature of these countries' origins. dsshubris.blogspot.com /2005/03/arab-nationalism.html   (4960 words)

Democracy Inaction - Understanding Arab anti-Americanism. By Lee Smith So, when a leader like Mubarak conveys the message that Arabs hate Americans, we should remember that he is not a pollster but a dictator, and when he wants to know what his people think, he will tell them what to think. When Arabs say that they like Americans but not American policies, they are saying they do not understand the basic principle of representative government: The American people are their government. The difference between Arab leadership and the Arab people is the key to understanding Arab anti-Americanism. slate.msn.com /id/2099413   (4960 words)
