At the beginning, the Political Bureau extended a salute of pride and reverence to the souls of our people’s martyrs and the Arab nation during the Al-Aqsa Flood battle, who sacrificed their pure blood for Palestine and the dignity of the nation, expressing its high appreciation for the steadfastness of our Palestinian people in the Strip, its significant appreciation for the steadfastness of the resistance and its qualitative strikes that continue to inflict major losses on the enemy, and lauding the significant role played by the resistance on the fronts in Lebanon, Yemen, Iraq, and Syria, supporting our people and exhausting the zionist and American enemy.
The Political Bureau confirmed that our people, along with the resistance forces, are waging the Arab nation’s battle against the forces of colonialism and aggression that seek to eliminate our people and their cause, after the October 7 operation exposed its incapacity and fragilty, and debunked the myths of its army and security technologies that fell before the courage, will, planning of the resistance, and the heroism of its brave fighters.
The Political Bureau affirmed that, after 120 days since the start of the zionist aggression on our people, the zionist enemy has not succeeded in achieving any of its goals, despite its brutal crimes and its practice of genocide and systematic and comprehensive destruction of all life essentials, and despite the terrible conditions our people suffer, and the catastrophic humanitarian and health suffering of the displaced, especially in the Northern and Gaza governates, where they face the danger of starvation and death in cold and harsh conditions.
The Political Bureau added that our people are the best to understand that the inflated objectives announced by the enemy, its exaggeration and threats to our people, and the American ally’s plans regarding the future of Gaza, will fall one by one, and the alliance of aggression will find nothing from our people but resistance and adherence to their national rights and rallying around the resistance, and they will find nothing on the land of Gaza but the fire that will burn its army.
In its reading of the field conditions on the ground in the Gaza Strip, the Political Bureau confirmed that the resistance is still steadfast, strong, fierce, and inflicting heavy losses on the invading zionist forces. The battle of Khan Younis continues for two months, with the occupation not achieving any of its goals, pointing to the high cost incurred by the occupation, which paid a heavy price, represented by hundreds of killed, and thousands of wounded and disabled, at the hands of Palestinian fighters.
The Political Bureau also indicated that the enemy, which raised the ceiling of its illusions, lost its sanity due to the continuous launching of rockets by the resistance, especially in the northern Gaza Strip, which it declared it had controlled, which confirms the confusion and exhaustion experienced by the zionist enemy, and its mire in Gaza.
The Political Bureau confirmed its rejection of the Paris plan proposal, which did not clearly include stopping the aggression and a complete withdrawal of the occupation from the Gaza Strip, the return of the displaced to their homes and areas from which they were displaced, breaking the siege, and aiding our people, calling for fortifying the Palestinian position and enhancing national partnership in decision-making and adopting a unified stance to confront all American, Western, and some Arab parties’ attempts to rescue the zionist enemy from its dilemma and attempt to give it an image of victory it could not achieve despite all its crimes.
The Political Bureau praised the insistence of the Islamic resistance in Lebanon to support our people and our resistance in the Strip, and rejecting dealing with any political issues or American, French, Arab, and European pressures, and linking stopping its strikes and exhausting the enemy with stopping the aggression on Gaza, as well as saluting the Yemeni people and its armed forces for their bold, courageous, and steadfast positions in supporting our people’s resistance and striking the occupation and its allies despite the strikes directed at it, confirming that these Yemeni positions will be recorded in history in golden letters.
The Political Bureau highly valued the important role played by Iraq in supporting our people’s resistance, confirming that the recent operation carried out by the Iraqi resistance at the American Al-Tanf base is messages of fire, that the war will reach the entire region if the war is expanded on Lebanon.
The Political Bureau also discussed the explosive situations in the occupied West Bank, and the zionist enemy’s plans to displace our people, which are being implemented on the ground through the continuation of policies of killing, settlement, Judaization, arrest, and attempts of displacement similar to what it aspires to achieve in the Gaza Strip, and this also reflects in the danger of the “Paris plan” through which the American enemy seeks to impose a regional settlement that eliminates the Palestinian cause.
The Political Bureau emphasized that the resistance in Gaza has the capacity to resist, endure, continue, and remain steadfast for a much longer period than the enemy can imagine. At the same time, it called for strengthening the steadfastness of the popular cradle to face the catastrophes and harsh living conditions our people are enduring due to the hardships of displacement and the continuation of the aggression. This requires confronting the operations of those who trade in our people’s suffering, death traders, and elevating the performance of all national institutions to the level of what our people are facing.
The Political Bureau pointed out that the Front has presented a national vision to the forces and factions for protecting and enhancing the popular cradle, efforts are ongoing with everyone to implement it in a way that ensures the alleviation of our people’s suffering, especially the displaced, affirming that there is no choice but for everyone to rise to their national duty towards our people who have made all these sacrifices.
The Political Bureau also called on all donor parties and Arab and friendly countries to enhance relief initiatives to our people in the Gaza Strip, especially in Gaza and North Gaza Governorates where our people are at risk of famine due to the non-arrival of relief materials to those areas. It urged continued pressure to break the siege imposed on the Strip, enforce the entry of relief materials and medicines into the besieged Strip, and save the lives of thousands of wounded and work urgently for their departure from the Gaza Strip for treatment in light of the occupation’s complete destruction of the health infrastructure.
Furthermore, the Political Bureau called for confronting the old and new zionist and American plans aimed at ending the role of the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) as a step towards the liquidation of the Palestinian cause, asserting that the claims and lies promoted by the occupation and echoed by some Western countries, with the complicity of the UNRWA Commissioner-General, have a political goal: the liquidation of the refugee cause, through targeting UNRWA as the international witness to the Nakba crime and subsequent genocidal crimes.
The Political Bureau extended greetings to South Africa, which has always stood by Palestine and its people against zionist tyranny and arrogance, prioritizing truth and justice over interests. It also saluted those who stood in solidarity with it at the International Court of Justice to put the zionist entity in the cage of accusation, as well as the global popular solidarity movement for isolating the criminal entity that is hostile to human values.
The Political Bureau of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine saluted the female and male prisoners in the occupation’s jails and their heroic steadfastness in confronting the occupation’s fascism, the racism of its jailers, and the policy of abuse and torture that escalated after October 7, under harsh conditions and winter weather, with the occupation reducing food rations, withdrawing all electrical appliances, suppressing hundreds of prisoners inside the jails, and preventing visits to them, calling for wider solidarity with them, revealing the fate of hundreds of prisoners from the Gaza Strip kidnapped by the occupation, and highlighting their cause through media, public, legal, political means, and at the level of international and human rights institutions, expanding the scope of support and solidarity with them on a Palestinian, Arab, and international level.
In conclusion of its meeting, the Political Bureau affirmed the Front’s determination to continue its efforts with all national parties to adopt the unified national vision aimed at unifying the national stance in managing the decisive battle with the zionist enemy and confronting all plans aimed at liquidating the Palestinian cause, stressing its confidence in our people’s ability to achieve unity and secure victory despite the coalition of aggressor forces.
