Hamas leader: Joint committee to “develop the popular resistance, which may develop into a popular intifada”
Chairman of Hamas’ Political Bureau Ismail Haniyeh: "There will be a committee [of Fatah, Hamas, PFLP and others] to examine the way to develop the popular resistance, which may develop into a popular intifada, and therefore we will have a united national leadership on the ground to direct this resistance."
Haniyeh is referring to the United National Leadership of the Popular Resistance – A committee to oversee and direct the “popular resistance” that was established following the meeting of the secretary-generals of the Palestinian factions - which include several terror organizations - on Sept. 3, 2020. In this committee, Abbas’ Fatah is coordinating openly with representatives of internationally designated terror organizations such as Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine.
