| Abu al-Abbas in Cairo |
| 2003-01-07 |
| The People's Front for Liberation of Palestine has announced that a delegation headed by its secretary general Muhammad Abbas (Abu al-Abbas) arrived in Cairo yesterday to hold talks with the Egyptian officials concerning the Palestinian dialogue. In a statement, the front said that the visit came at the "invitation of the Egyptian leadership concerning the inter- Palestinian national dialogue in order to reach common ground among the national and Islamic work groups that would be the base for a Palestinian national program." The statement added that the delegation "met with persons concerned with the dialogue." Abu al-Abbas commended the "Egyptian initiative" and the efforts made by the Egyptian government. He stressed the "importance of consolidating the Palestinian national unity in the context of the PLO in order to withstand dangers resulted from the intensified Zionist aggression." PFLP is an organization whose time has gone. But rather than admit it, and go out of business, they're occasinally trying to compete with the religious thugs in the bloodthirst game. |
