Intifada to end Israeli occupation, crimes: Pundit
Press TV has interviewed Sukant Chandan, a filmmaker and political commentator from London, and Fredrick Peterson, a senior congressional defense adviser from New York, to discuss the simmering tensions in the occupied Palestinian territories.
Chandan states that the Palestinian people from all walks of life are involved in the ongoing protests against the Israeli occupation and atrocities, adding that the movement in Palestine is not an internet-based youth activity against the Zionists.
He also notes young Palestinians were the backbone of both previous Intifada movements and other parts of the nation were active and supportive of the uprisings.
The Palestinian youth started to protest the Israeli crimes and then armed fighters joined the anti-Israel revolutions to kick off the first and second Intifadas, he argues, adding that the process needs to be reiterated once more to promote unity among the Palestinian factions to rise against the Israeli regime.
Pointing to the end of Israeli occupation, he maintains, “the end will come through the Intifada allied with regional forces,” who support the Palestinians cause.
The Palestinians are showing the same reactions that all colonized people do, Chandan says, adding that the Algerians also fought against the French colonial empire in 1950s.
Peterson, for his part, says Palestine may be “in the threshold of a third Intifada,” which seems to be unique and out of control, because the uprising comes from the ordinary young Palestinians; thus, the recent developments in Palestine are a youth movement.
He adds that the internet culture is building up to the upcoming Intifada, noting however that the uprising does not have any central command.
