The Galilee Too?
In a strange move, at least to my mind, the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades have called for a continuation of the violence and attacks in order to free 'Yahudah, Sameria, Jerusalem, and the Galilee.
I understand the reasoning of considering the Galilee to be 'occupied territory,' but it is Syrian territory that Syria still claims. (As opposed to the other 'occupied territories that were Egyptian and Jordanian territory that the claims were renounced on.) How can a Palestinian group claim it will fight to free Syrian territory.
Once again we see that the Palestinians are not genuine in what they wish to accomplish. For one thing they have never mentioned the Galilee before in their demands, and to I believe this points out that at least some Palestinians still see themselves as part of 'Greater Syria.'
Ah well. I guess we will just have to wait and see.
