	The Islamic Cause of Palestine
		The significance of Palestine in the Islamic faith is evident by the frequent references to it in both the Qur'an and the Ahadith of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
		Palestine is the land of prophets who were sent with the message of Islam and hence should not be ruled by anyone other than those who uphold the message of Islam by implementing its laws and regulations.
		Based on Palestine's Islamic history and significance in the Islamic faith, and after the failure of all non-Islamic methods to free Palestine from Zionist occupation, the Islamic solution is re-emerging as a powerful and popular means to liberate the occupied lands.

	Palestine in the Islamic history (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Most of the regions in Palestine were subjected to the Damascus regime, and during the weakness of the two rulers of Syria (Radwan and Daqaq), a lot of private rulers emerged, none of which dominated more than one city.

However, the king's only help was to push Baktash for further corruption, which ultimately led to his downfall and the triumph of Tagatken.
		Thus, Palestine was divided between the kingdom of Akka ruled by the Crusaders and the Tartarian Mongolians.

		Palestine was "a land without people for a people without a land," said the early Israeli leaders.

	A DRAMATIC STRUGGLE OVER SELF-DEFINITION (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		In its appeal both to the Jewish people's "traditional and historic attachment" to the land of Israel and to universal principles of justice and natural right, the Declaration gave expression to conflicting currents running through modern Zionism, especially the ideas of Theodor Herzl, whom the Declaration invoked as the "spiritual father of the Jewish state."
		Hazony is the placing of hedonism over heroism and modern consumerism over piety.
		In the end that struggle is not between Zionism and its antithesis but rather a struggle within Israel's soul between the conflicting principles out of which Zionism was forged.

		The tragedy of the people of Palestine is that their country was 'given' by a foreign power to another people for the creation of a new state.
		The problem of Palestine cannot be exclusively solved on the principle of self-determination, because there is one element in the population -- the Jews -- which, for historical and religious reasons, is entitled to a greater influence than would be given to it if numbers were the sole test.
		No mention of self-determination was made in the terms of the Mandate for Palestine and, against the wishes of the Arab majority, the gates of Palestine were opened to Jewish immigration so that by 1931 the Jews constituted 16% of the total population, and by 1936, 28%.

	The fight to liberate Palestine
		The larger of the two, the PFLP, contended that the victory of the Palestinian struggle was contingent on the success of Arab masses in defeating reactionary Arab regimes.
		That was why the official PLO had little to do with the mass struggle, the Intifada, that broke out in the territories in late 1987.
		This alternative will have to look to the struggles of the Arab working classes against their rulers and imperialist backers as the way to liberate Palestine.
