Palestinian Authority Presidential Advisor: The Refugees Are the New
'Palestinian Nuclear Weapon'
In a May 23, 2011 article published by the Palestinian Authority news agency
Wafa, Sabri Saidam, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas's advisor
for information technology and vocational training and Fatah Revolutionary
Council deputy secretary-general, said that the marches on Israel's borders
on "Nakba Day" had revealed the new "Palestinian nuclear weapon." This
weapon, he said, was the brave young people loyal to their ancestral
homeland who do not fear risking their lives to actualize their rights to a
state, freedom, and independence - a weapon he described as more powerful
than Israel's entire arsenal.
Following are excerpts from the article:
<http://www.memri.org/report/en/0/0/0/0/0/0/5336.htm#_edn1> [1]
"The glorious day has arrived, [the day] that some feared and others
ignored, while the rest prepared themselves at the last minute. The
Palestinians have begun moving their new, quality 'nuclear weapon' across
the borders - while the massive arsenal of nuclear, chemical, and
biological weapons, cluster and phosphorous [bombs], and the entire spectrum
of WMDs rests in Israel's storage facilities, nuclear reactors, and
laboratories. [The arsenal was] paralyzed by the footfall of a Palestinian
youth who advanced via the border, risking his life, to reach the birthplace
of his parents, grandparents, and noble Jaffa family - while his comrades
encountered [live] fire at the border.
"This new Palestinian 'nuclear weapon' is based on a large nucleus of
loyalty to the motherland - a nucleus of courage and of yearning, and of
distress due to the occupation. Together with this is a nucleus of courage,
that disregards the minefields, the barbed-wire fences, the [tear] gas
grenades, the [various] types of munitions, and the [various] types of
obstinacy reflected in every speech delivered so generously before humanity
by the occupation government.
"The new Palestinian 'nuclear weapon' demolishes the theory [that the
Palestinian refugees will] forget [their yearning for the homeland], on
which the Hebrew state has relied. It destroys the possibility of
intimidating the millions of Palestinian refugees. It shatters the
aspirations of the generals of our time, who aim to eliminate the
affiliation of the Palestinian grandchild [with the homeland] - the
grandchild who is charged with yearning for the land of his forefathers, [so
much so] that he is willing to gamble with his life in an attempt to attain
his plundered right - his right to a state, to freedom, and to independence.
"The internal battles within the occupation army will surely be endless,
after its haggard appearance was revealed on that day. Perhaps those battles
will be fought in total secrecy, with a few officers removed from their
posts. Perhaps [the Israeli army] will reassess its plans in order to deal
with this possible new test [that has become apparent] since the Nakba Day
[dress rehearsal].
"[This] article of mine contains a great [call] to those in the Occupation
state [Israel] who want to see and to hear that this impulse of
self-sacrifice among the new generation of Nakba grandchildren has great
significance - namely, that this generation is not afraid to storm [the
borders] and die, and therefore will not relinquish its right, no matter how
long the fence, how extensive the settlements, or how great the plunder of
the land. Thus, it will never tire, and will never agree to anything but
liberation and the disappearance of the occupation.
"In light of this, the threatening speeches and the denial of rights will be
to no avail. What will avail is submission to the fact that those who want
to live in security must give the people back their rights, their plundered
land, and their stolen lives - particularly because, as they say in English,
high fences do not necessarily make good neighbors.
"Perhaps those who are listening in the Occupation state - particularly
those who express solidarity with our people every week in the heroic places
and villages of the separation fence - must be told today: It is your job to
tell your politicians what they don't like to hear, namely that all your
country's weapons, and the language of obstinacy and tyranny, will not
[subdue us] - and neither will pressure on world leaders or [the attempt] to
compel them to change their statements and positions... None of these
actions [by Israel] will create a world that favors occupation and
humiliation.
"The new Palestinian nuclear weapon is the refugees outside and inside the
homeland - [who seek] a just peace but who will not turn to it until the
occupation is gone - as well as others whom the occupation has made
miserable, whose hopes and dreams are hobbled by the occupation, and who
have been filled with the stories of the homeland [told them by their]
grandmothers and grandfathers.
"Which is the more effective weapon - that of man, or that of fire?"
