RAMALLAH, (PIC)– MP Dr. Mustafa Al-Barghouthi said on Wednesday that the Palestinian Authorityâs negotiations with Israel had provided cover for the latterâs attacks on the Aqsa Mosque.
He told the PIC reporter that the recent escalation in Israeli violations could not pass without a response.
Barghouthi advocated popular resistance along with a unified national strategy as an urgent necessity, adding that the âfutile negotiationâ process should come to a halt since it only led to more âdisastersâ.
The MP said that the Israeli attack on worshippers and vigilantes inside the Aqsa Mosque today was âvery seriousâ and necessitated a firm retaliation on the part of the Palestinian people. He charged that the attack was one of the fruits of returning to negotiations.
He pointed out that the Palestinian people are the target of a âsystematic warâ that is daily escalating and the PA should immediately table the issue with the international criminal court and ask for punishing occupation for its crimes.
Barghouthi asked the Palestinian negotiator to stop wagering on negotiations and to return to wagering on his people, national unity, unified strategy, and the multi-faceted resistance.
Thank You.
