Columnist DR Abdulaziz al-Maqaleh says in his article “resistance is the solution” is the slogan that Hamas organization has been raising even as it is edging towards forming government of the Palestinian authority. To be fair the slogan is different than similar slogans raised by some political parties and regimes for political consumption. It has been a realistic slogan. We need this slogan very much. We need it not only to resist the enemies and the direct and indirect occupation but also to raise it against weakness that crept into our souls and to resist the readiness to surrender to occupation and dubious calls. The slogan of resistance is needed to be used against external and internal pressures aimed at imposing hegemony and expansion in political and economic control. We need resistance to deter the desire for division and sectarian split.
The enemies have temporarily succeeded in accusing the resistance of terror at a time it is innocent of it as a goal and style. It has only been the resistance of the enemy occupying the land and killing the innocent people. The genuine forces have clarified through commitment and practical conduct the real resistance. Those who accuse the resistance of terror realize before others that the resistance defends the legitimate rights of oppressed people and works for restoring the usurped land. There is no power on earth able to stop people who have chosen the road of resistance and defense of freedom of the homeland and independence.
