The Palestinian Alternative Revolutionary Path Movement (Masar Badil) called on its organizations, cadres, supporters, and all forces of the Palestinian people to prepare for a new phase of struggle in the diaspora and to assume their national responsibilities in confronting what the movement described as the ongoing war of genocide and ethnic cleansing in the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, and throughout occupied Palestine.

During a meeting held yesterday, Monday, the movement’s Executive Committee emphasized the importance of preparing for the coming phase and continuing political and popular organizing to confront the Zionist movement and the policies of repression and criminalization targeting the Palestinian movement and forces in solidarity with Palestine, particularly in Western countries that constitute major centers of imperialist influence.

The movement considered the organization of the Palestinian people and their supporters in the diaspora to be an urgent national priority, in light of the challenges facing the Palestinian cause and attempts to marginalize the role of refugees and exclude them from participation in shaping Palestinian national decision-making.

It stressed the particular importance of strengthening grassroots organizing within Palestinian refugee camps and communities, especially in Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan, and confronting the policies of marginalization and deprivation of civil, social, and economic rights suffered by Palestinian refugees.

The movement affirmed that the coming phase requires developing the tools of popular and political organizing and strengthening communication and coordination among Palestinian communities in the various countries of the diaspora, ensuring the participation of refugees, youth, and women in Palestinian national life and strengthening their role in defending the rights of the Palestinian people, foremost among them the right of return and self-determination.
