The Palestine Solidarity Conference is being held in Sweden from September 7th until September 11th. It is organized by The Palestinian progressive youth union (PPYU), RKU (Revolutionary communist youth) of Sweden, and The Sports Club Proletären FF.
A quick read of its timetable reveals many discussions on “fighting occupation” and “resistance.” And there is no doubt what they mean by this. Just consider the timetable:
Day one, Tuesday the 7th of SeptemberTheme: Solidarity with Palestine– Opening ceremony– The right to fight occupation– Resistance: definition and the range of Practice– The Palestinian Issue and the International human Low– The new Global Regime changes and the effect on supporting the nations resistanceDay two, Wednesday the 8th of SeptemberTheme: The strategy for resistance– The Palestinian resistance against the Zionist occupation– The American double standards mixing between resistance and terrorism– The youth movements role in facing the gradual global challenges.– The popular and international solidarity with the Palestinian national struggle.
Clearly, the conference participants consider the terror attacks in Israel to be resistance.
But Israel is not singled out. Consider the timetable for day three:
Day Three, Thursday the 9th of SeptemberTheme: The fight against US-Imperialism– The general fight against imperialism and the struggle for national independence.– The resistance against US-imperialism in Iraq
If you support the terrorists, you are a terrorist. Who knows..perhaps they are even raising funds to support the “resistance.”
