From: "Magnus Bernhardsen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Thu, 13 Sep 2001 12:34:03 +0200 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Peoples War] PFLP statement Press Office 11 September 2001 Ramallah: The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine declares that it has no connection whatsoever with the attacks in New York and Washington, DC. The PFLP is a political party that is working to regain the national rights of the Palestinian people, including the right of refugees to return and the creation of an independent and sovereign Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital. At this time when the Popular Front declares its commitment to continuing the legitimate struggle against the Zionist occupation, it also declares that the Popular Front is never and can never be against the American people, nor does it bear any hostility to the American people. While it is true that the Popular Front is against the policy of the United States Administration and its blind and unconditional support of the Israeli occupation government, this in no way implies that U.S civilians or any other civilians are a target for the Popular Front. We look with deepest concern and regret at the attempts of some media organizations, in general, and Israel, in particular, to use this tragic incident to incite the public against the Palestinian people and to distort the image of the PFLP, the Arabs, or the Moslem World. This irresponsibility on the part of the media can only plant the seeds of discrimination and prejudice and lead people to conclude that Islam and the orient are the source of all evil. As the Popular Front denounces this attack, it sends its sympathy and condolences to the American people. ____________________________________________________ PFLP Official Website: www.pflp-pal.org _________________________________________________ KOMINFORM P.O.
