Whoever stands by a just cause cannot possibly be called a terrorist.

Our basic aim is to liberate the land from the Mediterranean Seas to the Jordan River. We are not concerned with what took place in June 1967 or in eliminating the consequences of the June war. The Palestinian revolution's basic concern is the uprooting of the Zionist entity from our land and liberating it.

It's always convenient for certain people to heap accusations on Israel.
