	Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP)
		The DFLP, which belongs to the PLO, initially had a radical Marxist-Leninist ideology and cooperated with other radical left-wing organizations (some of them underground).
		Hawatmeh and other senior members of the DFLP are based in Syria, but the organization has senior political figures in the PA-administered territories and maintains a small operational-terrorist wing in the Gaza Strip.
		During the current violent confrontation, the DFLP has confined its activities to a small number of terrorist attacks in the Gaza Strip, but has participated in various internal Palestinian dialogues.

		This is why the DFLP refuses to use terms like the "Palestinian Authority" or "the opposition", because such terms imply that we are an independent state when we are not -- not yet.
