PA: “We are prepared to sacrifice … we will sacrifice our children"
Fatah Central Committee Secretary Jibril Rajoub: “The first matter is creating an elected leadership inside the occupied homeland (i.e., the West Bank). This is because we are heading towards an escalation of the resistance. Therefore there needs to be a legitimate leadership that is internationally recognized and committed to the UN resolutions, which may make strategic decisions by power of the recognized right, [including] reexamining the rules of engagement with the occupation, taking political steps, freezing the recognition, and possibly also declaring a national rebellion. An elected [government] can do anything. We in the Fatah Movement, regarding the struggle, the resistance, and the rules of engagement – we are open. We are prepared to sacrifice not [just] the last of-. We will sacrifice our children. The first unit that will be in the first line will be from the [Fatah] Central Committee, the [Fatah] Revolutionary Council, and our leadership… We have placed before you our strategic approach as we see it in Fatah, the foundations that we have agreed on with our brothers in Hamas… We have no problem; we are prepared to be with Hamas, and prepared to be with the factions – if only!”
