By Harsh Thakor
The Handala Center for Prisoners and Ex-Prisoners Affairs notified that the Israeli Occupation Government transferred the Secretary-General of the Marxist-Leninist Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), Ahmad Sa’adat, as well as several other political prisoners, from “Ramon” Prison to Nafha Prison. It is an integral part of the fascist ploy of the blood thirsty Israeli state.
The transfer took place from Section 5 of “Ramon” Prison to Section 10 of Nafha Prison. It also reported a state of tension There was also news of turbulence prevailing in PFLP sections in all IOG prisons. The PFLP place sole blame on the IOG prison administration for the lives of its Secretary-General and the other political prisoners who were transferred to the Nafha Prison.
In a statement, the PFLP asserted that this Israeli assault on its leadership is part and parcel of the complete demolition operation that the Captive Movement is being subjected to, highlighting that such attacks simmered after Itamar Ben-Gvir took over the IOG Police Ministry. The statement declared that the PFLP Prison Branch called for a state of high alert in all Occupation Government prisons and pledged to retaliate in an organised manner to the crime committed by the prison administration. According to the statement, a planned and articulate program of struggle would be undertaken until the IOG relented in mercilessly tearing apart the Front’s leadership cadres and all the political prisoners is not put to an end.
The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine called on the Palestinian people, the national forces, the people of the Arab nations, and the free people of the world to offer every inch of support to its Secretary-General, its political prisoners, and the whole Captive Movement. Elsewhere, the PFLP concluded its statement by stating that its Secretary-General Ahmad Sa’adat and his comrades in IOG prisons won considerable victories over the Zionist jailer at various junctures of struggle.
On a Sunday morning, Occupation Government repression units barged into Section 5 of “Ramon” Prison and transferred the political prisoners there to Nafha Prison. The Palestinian Prisoners Information Office reported that the “Ramon” Prison administration shut down sections 2, 3, 7, and 8 amid a state of tension prevailing in the prison. This came on the brink of the 22nd anniversary of the assassination of former Occupation Government Minister of Tourism, Rehavam Ze’evi, which the Occupation Government blames PFLP Resistance fighters of, in response to the Occupation Government’s assassination of its (PFLP) former Secretary-General, Abu Ali Mustafa, on August 27, 2001.
After the assassination of Abu Ali Mustafa, Sa’adat was elected Secretary-General of the Front, only to be subsequently arrested by the occupation in 2006, on fabricated charges of Ze’evi’s assassination. In 2008, the Occupation Government’s Military Court sentenced Sa’adat to 30 years in prison. During his captivity, the PFLP Secretary-General went on several hunger strikes and was transferred to solitary confinement several times by the Occupation Government.

Recent attacks of Israel and Palestinian retaliation

From September 22nd to 29th the State of Israel has carried out numerous attacks, especially in the Gaza Strip as well as the occupied West Bank. In this area a young man has been killed in Jenin and two other young men were killed in Tulkarem. Another Palestinian youth has also succumbed from injuries sustained in the explosion in Gaza on 13th of September. These murders capped the six that already occurred in the previous days.
Since the night of Friday 22nd of September, at least five drone bombings and missile attacks have been reported against the Gaza Strip. These attacks are principally to dislodge Hamas’s defensive and surveillance positions. The attacks against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip are made frequently, not only to try to extinguish the Palestinian resistance, but also to demoralise Palestinian people by making them suffer to the last straw. Recently the State of Israel mercilessly attacked Palestinian fishermen and prevented Palestinian workers from going to work to Israel. After the heroic struggle of the people in the Strip, were forced to reopen the borders and permit Palestinian workers to return to their jobs.
Palestinian resistance has shimmered braving all odds . Earlier this month, there were joint military exercises of several organizations of the Palestinian National Resistance Movement in the Gaza Strip. While the Israeli offensive is escalating in the Gaza Strip, several relevant Palestinian organizations have met in Beirut to knit more cohesive coordination.
Statement of Deputy Secretary-General of the Marxist-Leninist Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, Jamil Mezher:
Earlier deputy Secretary-General of the Marxist-Leninist Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, Jamil Mezher, confirmed in an interview with Al Mayadeen on Sunday that for the Palestinian factions it was imperative to elevate resistance in the West Bank.
Mezher said about the meeting with the leaders of Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and the PFLP that the importance of holding the meeting in Beirut “is because Lebanese capital is a precursor. of resistance.” Mezher asserted that consolidating battlefront unity is important to protect resistance fighters against the occupation, pointing out that the settlement path has only reversed fortunes of their people.”
He said that the resistance fighters need insulation from Israeli aggression and the policy of assassinations noting that the Israeli enemy believes that through undertaking raids and arrests in the West Bank, it can subvert the resistance.” He expressed optimism declaring all attempts by the Israeli enemy in the West Bank fail, as hundreds of young people are integrating with the resistance forces, performing operations that confuse the Israeli enemy on daily basis.
Mezher stressed that the qualitative and consistent development of the resistance infuses fresh elements in confronting the Israeli enemy.Mezher stated that the prolonged resistance in the West Bank and its elevation and development could defeat the enemy.

हिंदी आलोचना जैसे पिछड़ चुके अनुशासन की जगह हिंदी वैचारिकी का विकास जरूरी

- प्रमोद रंजन* भारतीय राजनीति में सांप्रदायिक व प्रतिक्रियावादी ताकतों को सत्ता तक पहुंचाने में हिंदी पट्टी का सबसे बड़ा योगदान है। इसका मुख्य कारण हिंदी-पट्टी में कार्यरत समाजवादी व जनपक्षधर हिरावल दस्ते का विचारहीन, अनैतिक और प्रतिक्रियावादी होते जाना है। अगर हम उपरोक्त बातों को स्वीकार करते हैं, तो कुछ रोचक निष्कर्ष निकलते हैं। हिंदी-जनता और उसके हिरावल दस्ते को विचारहीन और प्रतिक्रियावादी बनने से रोकने की मुख्य ज़िम्मेदारी किसकी थी?

Under Modi, democracy is regressing and economy is also growing slowly

By Avyaan Sharma* India is "the largest democracy in the world", but now its democracy is regressing and its economy is also growing slowly. What has PM Modi's ten years in power brought us? Unemployment remains high. Joblessness is particularly high among India's youth - with those aged 15 to 29 making up a staggering 83% of all unemployed people in India, according to the "India Employment Report 2024", published last month by the International Labour Organisation (ILO) and the Institute of Human Development (IHD). The BJP-led government did not provide jobs to two crore youth in a year as was promised by Modi in the run up to the 2014 general elections.

नफरती बातें: मुसलमानों में असुरक्षा का भाव बढ़ रहा है, वे अपने मोहल्लों में सिमट रहे हैं

- राम पुनियानी* भारत पर पिछले 10 सालों से हिन्दू राष्ट्रवादी भारतीय जनता पार्टी (भाजपा) राज कर रही है. भाजपा आरएसएस परिवार की सदस्य है और आरएसएस का लक्ष्य है हिन्दू राष्ट्र का निर्माण. आरएसएस से जुड़ी सैंकड़ों संस्थाएँ हैं. उसके लाखों, बल्कि शायद, करोड़ों स्वयंसेवक हैं. इसके अलावा कई हजार वरिष्ठ कार्यकर्ता हैं जिन्हें प्रचारक कहा जाता है. भाजपा के सत्ता में आने के बाद से आरएसएस दुगनी गति से हिन्दू राष्ट्र के निर्माण के अपने एजेण्डे को पूरा करने में जुट गया है. यदि भाजपा को चुनावों में लगातार सफलता हासिल हो रही है तो उसका कारण है देश में साम्प्रदायिकता और साम्प्रदायिक मुद्दों का बढ़ता बोलबाला. इनमें से कुछ हैं राम मंदिर, गौमांस और गोवध एवं लव जिहाद.

Laxmanpur Bathe massacre: Perfect example of proto-fascist Brahmanical social order

By Harsh Thakor The massacre at Laxmanpur-Bathe of Jehanabad in Bihar on the night of 1 December in 1997 was a landmark event with distinguishing features .The genocide rightly shook the conscience of the nation in the 50th year of Indian independence. The scale of the carnage was unparalleled in any caste massacre. It was a perfect manifestation of how in essence the so called neo-liberal state was in essence most autocratic.
