The alliance of Palestinian factions in Damascus on Monday deplored the American position biased in favor of the Israeli occupation government, which was voiced recently by secretary of state Hillary Clinton and called on all forces of the Palestinian people to renew the intifada and escalate resistance activities against the occupation.

In a press statement issued on the anniversary of the ill-fated Balfour declaration, the alliance stressed the need to resume the national reconciliation dialog away from the Zio-American pressures and blackmail.

The alliance also urged all spectra of the Palestinian people at home and in Diaspora to be keen on the national unity based on the adherence to all historical and national rights and the option of resistance.

It also highlighted the Palestinian right to resist the occupation and confront the ongoing attempts to liquidate the Palestinian cause under the guise of the American solutions and promises, and the frivolous negotiations.

In another context, Anwar Raja, the spokesman for the popular front for the liberation of Palestine-general command (PFLP-GC), stated Sunday that the alliance of Palestinian factions is making considerable efforts to declare a comprehensive Palestinian authoritative body to save the Palestinian cause from deteriorating and to protect the resistance.

Raja explained that the idea of establishing an authoritative body is a natural result of the one-sided policies pursued by the Palestinian Authority.

He stressed that the establishment of this body became an urgent need and a transitional step to restore and rebuild the Palestine liberation organization (PLO) on the basis of the resistance.
