A statement from the [Palestinian] National and Islamic Forces (see note below -Ed.)
No voice surpasses the voice of the intifada
A call to come out against the attacks of the settlers and the occupation army
O masses of our heroic Palestinian people
O masses of our lauded Arab and Islamic nation
O heroes of the intifada and the brave resistance
O all free people and people of honor in the world
The leadership of the National and Islamic Forces held a leadership meeting in the town of Beita that is standing firm and resisting, in the presence of the national action factions in Beita…
The forces emphasized the following:
…
It is important to continue the mass-participant popular activities as part of the constant popular resistance (i.e., term used by Palestinians, which also refers to the use of violence and terror) to the occupation, as a sign of rejecting the settlement enterprise and the imposing of facts on the ground. We note the significance of extensive participation in the activities this coming Friday [Aug. 6, 2021] at all the friction points.”
