Odeh: Palestinians Must Choose How to Fight the Occupation

Joint List head MK Ayman Odeh (Hadash) told Israeli radio on Tuesday, October 6, that it is up to the Palestinians to decide how to oppose the Israeli occupation of the territories. “The Palestinian people are the ones who will choose how to fight against the occupation,” said MK Odeh. “I have no doubt that the popular route is the correct one, and not that of armed struggle.”

According to Odeh “The governments of Israel, and particularly Netanyahu’s governments, have violated every agreement, perpetuated the occupation, strengthened the settlements, and in effect have destroyed the Oslo accords.”
