PFLP condemns oppression and abuse against Arab peoples and calls for broad support for Arab revolutions [image: benghazicourt.jpg] <http://pflp.ps/english/?q=node/2530> *The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine condemned the wide-ranging abuse, oppression and crimes against the masses of the Arab peoples in Libya, Bahrain, Yemen and everywhere else in the Arab world, who are struggling to secure their rights and dignity against brutal reactionary regimes. The PFLP demanded on February 20, 2011 an immediate end to the bloody and brutal repression at the hands of these regimes, and said that silence in the face of these crimes is shameful. Hundreds have been killed and thousands wounded, said the Front, appealing to all Arab and international organizations who value human rights and dignity, and all Arab and international media to act to expose the reality and disseminate important information about the crimes being committed in these Arab countries against our Arab people, and put an end to these massacres taking place hidden from Arab and international view. The PFLP stressed that the march of freedom, dignity and justice for the peoples of the Arab nation sparked by the revolutions of Egypt and Tunisia will not be stopped by these massacres at the hands of tyrants, and that the people will go forward and achieve their goals of liberation, democracy, social justice and unity. * Comrade Sa'adat celebrates Egyptian revolution and calls upon Palestinians to overthrow occupation [image: s3dat15022008a.jpg] <http://pflp.ps/english/?q=node/1092> Comrade Ahmad Sa'adat, the imprisoned General Secretary of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, released a message on February 20, 2011 saluting the Egyptian revolution and its achievements, and the triumph of the Egyptian people over the corrupt Egyptian regime. Comrade Sa'adat issued the message through an attorney from the Palestinian Prisoners' Club, who visited him in Nafha prison. Sa'adat is currently held in isolation and has little opportunity to communicate with the outside world, and is often denied access to books and media as well as access to other prisoners and family visits. He was eager to express his celebration of the Egyptian revolution, said the Prisoners Club. Comrade Sa'adat said that the Egyptian revolution is a triumph of the determination and will of the Egyptian people, particularly the youth and popular classes, and that this national democratic movement has begun with toppling the regime, on the path to liquidating all of the institutions and pockets of control of the old regime, which formed the mainstay of tyranny and corruption, and building a modern democracy over its ruins. Comrade Sa'adat said in his message that the most important achievement of this revolution will be building a civil state based on the principles and values of freedom and democracy in its form and its content, social justice, drawing its legitimacy from fair and transparent democratic elections involving all currents of the Egyptian people. He emphasized the importance of mass popular participation in the new democratic Egypt in order to break the shackles of dependency in the economic and political system of imperialist globalization, and to restore Egypt to its role and status in cultural and political history as a leader and an incubator for the Arab liberation movement and a force to unify the Arab nation. Comrade Sa'adat said further that it is natural that the victory of the people of Tunisia and Egypt have great implications for the liberation of the Arab people to overthrow all of the systems of corruption, tyranny and oppression, and that this victory will also have great and positive repercussions on our national cause. He said that the Palestinian people now must overthrow division and occupation, and achieve national unity in order to rebuild the internal Palestinian house and in particular the Palestine Liberation Organization.
