🇵🇸 The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine

In the wake of the 1967 Six Day War and the occupation of the West Bank by Israel, Palestinian Christian George Habash, established the PFLP, a resistance movement that combined Arab nationalism with Marxist-Leninist ideology.

During the 1960s and 1970s, the group gained notoriety for a series of armed attacks and plane #highjacks, most notably with the capture of an Air France plane in 1967. Among the most prominent members of the group is Leila Khaled, who became an iconic symbol for Palestinian resistance and female power after she highjacked a plane headed from Rome to Athens in 1969.

In the 1970s, after #Fatah – the leading secular Palestinian political party founded in 1959 by #YasserArafat and others, the #PFLP has consistently been the second-largest of the groups forming the #PLO, the umbrella organisation of the Palestinian national movement.

🇵🇸 Tell Your Tale, Little Bird (2007) | Palestine Film Institute - Documentary, 1h 30m

Seven militant women (#fedaiyat) of the revolutionary generation tell the story of the Palestinian resistance through accounts of their own lives.

Cut from 35 hours of interviews with leaders of the armed struggle, the film presents an image of confident, unapologetic and proud feminine identity.Together, the memories of these women narrate the dream of a generation, yet unrealized.

Tell Your Tale, Little Bird is a testament to the power of remembrance, positioning memory as an essential element of feminist struggle. The film reminds us that this oral tradition may carry recollection of past resistance, but it is in the very practice of retelling women’s stories that the political act has persisted.

🇵🇸 The Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine ( DFLP) 1969-present | Palquest

The Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (#DFLP) was founded in February 1969 when members within the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (#PFLP) decided to secede from the organization and to form a separate group. Intellectual and political differences had begun to appear within the PFLP just a few weeks after its first general congress was held in August 1968.

Throughout the DFLP's history, its fighters have carried out high-level operations deep inside occupied Palestine launched from “anchor points” that were established in #Jordan, the #GolanHeights , and Southern #Lebanon . They also fought in battles to defend the Palestinian #resistance in #Jordan, during the Lebanese Civil War and the Israeli Invasion of Lebanon in 1982, and in the “War of the Camps ” in Lebanon and to repel the Israeli military attacks on the #Gaza Strip.

🇵🇸 Gaza, Guevara and resistance against occupiers (1973)

Former Israeli Minister of Defence Moshe Dayan once said, “We run Gaza by day, and Guevara and his comrades run it at night.” His words summarise the courage of the people of the Gaza Strip, their steadfastness and their resistance against the occupiers.

After the Israeli army occupied Gaza in 1967, Al-Aswad became a leader in the Vanguard for the Popular Liberation War, a group known as As-Sa’iqa, and then a leader in the #PFLP.

Mohammed #AlAswad was arrested on 15 January, 1968 and imprisoned for two and a half years. He was released in July 1970, after which he resumed his struggle within the ranks of the PFLP and was kept busy preparing, training and educating military groups. He became the commander of the PFLP military action in the Gaza Strip until his death just over two years later. “Guevara” was martyred in #Gaza on 9 March, 1973, following a confrontation with the Israeli army.

🇵🇸 Remembering Theresa Halasa: Revered Veteran of the Palestinian Resistance

As an 18-year-old Palestinian fighter in 1972, Theresa was one of four militants who hijacked a Belgian Sabena plane, Flight 571, en route to Tel Aviv. Their demand: freedom for 315 Palestinian and Arab prisoners in Israeli jails.

The four Palestinian fighters, #ThereseHalasa, #RimaTannous *(a young Jordanian woman*), Ali Taha Abu Sneineh and Abdel-Aziz al-Atrash, and the plane were attacked by Israeli forces after landing in Palestine, disguised as Red Cross workers and aircraft technicians. The forces that attacked the plane and killed Abu Sneineh and al-Atrash – as well as a 22-year-old passenger, Miriam Anderson – included Ehud Barak and Benjamin Netanyahu; Netanyahu himself was shot in the shoulder, and Therese Halasa was severely injured.

🇵🇸 Rona Sela : History Suppressed Censorship in Israel's archives | The Listening Post - 2018

Sealed in Israel's archives and libraries are troves of Palestinian books, documents, photographs and films that were looted from Palestinian institutions and personal archives by Jewish militias and later, the IOF.

"This confiscation is a kind of daily struggle that Palestinians face," says Sherene Seikaly, a scholar of Middle Eastern history. "One of the reasons, that these archives are a target, that they're threatening, is because they're really a record of Palestinian social life, and Palestine more broadly."

Israeli historian #RonaSela has spent 20 years uncovering Palestinian visual history that has been kept in the dark in Israel's state and military archives. She says the methodical plunder of Palestinians' cultural assets predates the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948, what Palestinians call the 'Nakba' or 'catastrophe.'

🇵🇸 " The looting and seizure, as far as I found, started in the 1930s in a systematic and organised manner ... by #Haganah forces [#Zionist paramilitary group]. The seizure intensified, of course, with the #Nakba in 1948. I found materials taken in 1967, 1982, 1991 and ... in the last few years."

What begins with #looting and appropriation, continues with a system of censorship and historical revisionism in the archives. The origin of Palestinian material is often erased and replaced with terminology that fits the archivist's world view.

"I saw photos with comments and notes written on them by the censors and archivists. For example, Palestinians are described as 'terrorists', as 'gangs'. Seeing all of that taught me about how the materials go through a process of rewriting to aid or benefit the Zionist narrative," says Sela. "You see a place where the materials are being censored and erased from the public sphere."

🇵🇸 Palestinians see the #censorship as part of a wider trend of physical and #cultural erasure that began in 1948 and has continued ever since. Concealing the archival record denies them the tools to communicate their own #history, what the Palestinian intellectual and literary theorist #EdwardSaid called "permission to narrate."

"The fact that these #documents have been taken away from Palestinian hands is a sign of contempt for Palestinian history," says Yazbak. "It's an attempt to suggest Palestinians have no history, no documents, no belongings."
