Opis

This is a history of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), a violent Marxist faction within the Palestinian national movement. Taking a politically neutral approach, Cubert explores the group's background and provides an analysis of its aims, methods, structures and the factors responsible for its decline. The PFLP rejects any settlement to the Arab-Israeli conflict that falls short of the total elimination of Israel and the establishement of an independent state on what it claims to be Palestinian land. It is implacably hostile to the US and its allies in Europe and the Middle East and is committed to a strategy of armed conflict.

Jewish Chronicle- "an invaluable resource for anyone interested in Middle Eastern politics"



MESA Bulletine -"Harold M. Cuthbert offers a detailed study of the movement, but fails to make an origional or insightful contribution. The biographical list is impressive although the author is far more familiar with journalistic than scholarly sources".
