 National Resistance Movements
Organizations set up to support legitimate resistance movements outside the country where the war is taking place are sometimes referred to as "solidarity" groups.
When armed resistance groups meet certain tests and follow the rules set out by the Geneva Conventions and other humanitarian (armed conflict) law, they are not considered terrorist organizations or mercenaries, but legitimate parties to a conflict.
Today, there are many different ethnic national groups (like the Karenni in Burma, the Kurds in Iraq, the Kashmiris in Kashmir and the Tibetans in Tibet) who are denied self-determination in violation of international law.

 War and Resistance - Janine Rauch
When the ECC was banned in February 1988 COSAWR once again became the leading voice of the organised war resistance movement and broadened its coverage to publicise the positions of the churches, the student movement, organisations which had escaped the ban (such as the COSGs) and individual resisters.
Resister had a marked impact on the Western anti-apartheid movement, where it was regarded as an unrivalled source of information on militarisation and was used substantially in anti-apartheid campaigns.

 About The Islamic Resistance Movement "Hamas"
Hamas is an acronym that stands for the Islamic Resistance Movement, a popular national resistance movement which is working to create conditions conducive to emancipating the Palestinian people, delivering them from tyranny, liberating their land from the occupying usurper, and to stand up to the Zionist scheme which is supported by neo-colonist forces.
The resistance was there before the convening of the Madrid Conference; and the movement has no hostilities or battles with any international party, nor does it target the interests of the properties of the various countries.
Movement was issued on December 15, 1987, marking a new phase in the Jihad of the Palestinians against the tyrant Zionist occupation, a phase where the Islamic trend was the spearhead of resistance.

 From Political Aspiration to National Consensus
As the half-a-century long national resistance movement is at its crossroads, there is a strong need for a National Consultative Conference to serve as a forum for Karen people everywhere to discuss all the matters that urgently concern them at the national level.
The ultimate goal of the Karen resistance movement is to achieve the right to self-determination of the Karen people with the guarantee of ethnic equality within a genuine union of Burma.
Through a National Consultative Conference the Karen people we will be able to find a national consensus, in accord with their political culture, to carry on the struggle and realize their just dream.

 24.2 The Flames of National Resistance Flare throughout the Country
When formulating the line of national resistance, therefore, I paid primary attention to the work of building in the Rangnim and other major mountains secret bases that would be used for the operations and support of the KPRA as well as the strong points of the armed struggle by the national resistance forces.
When we first proposed the line for national resistance, some people shook their heads dubiously, but most of us supported it, confident that the policy was certain to succeed.
National resistance was inconceivable apart from an armed revolt, nor would it be successful without bases for activities.

As he said in his acceptance speech, this was a vote of confidence in the efforts of the National Resistance Movement to build a just society with a democratic and economically viable future for the nation.
The NRM’s guiding Ten-Point Programme, which was debated and agreed upon under his chairmanship in 1984 during the bush war, basically set out to redress the political and social wrongs that were inflicted on the Ugandan people for two-and-a-half decades.

 IRI : Around The Globe
As this debate continues, the National Resistance Movement-Organization (NRM-O) is the only organization that has both applied and been registered as a political party.
Currently the president can only hold office for two five-year terms, but the Movement National Conference proposed in March 2003 that the constitutional clause limiting the number of terms a president can serve be changed, thus allowing Museveni to run again in 2006, when his current term expires.
Since 1997, the Movement and its Secretariat have been allocated public funds for daily operations, but now that it is in the process of transforming into a political party, other political groups are clamoring for a share of state funding as well.

 National Progressive Movement
Although the National Resistance Movement (NRM) Government promised to usher in a fundamental change and orderly transition when it came to power in 1986, the way events are unfolding especially with the bribing of MPs… points to a different and seemingly problematic future.

 Scoop: Media Disinformation and the Iraqi Resistance
In other word, portraying the Iraqi national Resistance movement as a collection of "religious fanatics" and "foreign" fighters "with nothing to lose" is the Occupation's way of discrediting the Iraqi Resistance and denying the Iraqi people their legitimate right to fight for freedom and national sovereignty.
As I wrote previously, the Resistance is a homegrown movement of several Iraqi groups taking directions from members of their respective communities.
This type of reporting, which consists in dehumanizing the Iraqi Resistance, is aimed at a receptive Western audience, which shares the perpetrators frame of reference, to exploit an overarching climate of fear and prejudice, and in the process encourage more racism and Islamophobia.

The headline was "Attacks on Liberty": "In the name of national security, President Bush, Attorney General John Ashcroft, and even Congress have pulled strand after strand out of the constitutional fabric that distinguishes the United States from other nations.
Despite the self-satisfaction of George W. Bush and John Ashcroft, and the somnolence of the press, there is rising resistance around the country to the serial abuses of our liberties.
But what is most encouraging is the continued growth in cities and towns throughout the nation of Bill of Rights Defense Committees or their equivalents, a number of which are working with ACLU affiliates.

 Hamas
Another factor, which served the popularity of the Islamic phenomena, was that the Palestinian nationalist movement and the PLO moved the center of their political power away from Palestine, by consolidating an external leadership at the expense of the internal one in the Territories.
The Hamas movement was legally registered in Israel in 1978 by Sheikh Ahmed Yassin, the movement?s spiritual leader, as an Islamic Association by the name Al-Mujamma Al Islami, which widened its base of supporters and sympathizers by religious propaganda and social work.
The organizational and ideological sources of Hamas can be found in the movement of the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) which was set up in the 1920s in Egypt and renewed and strengthened its activity in the 1960s and 1970s in the Arab world, mainly in Jordan and Egypt.
