Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine

the entire societies are against, you know, this colonization.

And like, you know, I mean, in a country like Iran, you have contradictions, you have the liberals, you have the Palavoid monarchist freaks, you have Kurdish separatists, right? Like there are obviously social classes, factions and things of this nature, but overwhelmingly, let's say in Palestine and the south of Lebanon, resistance and these new forms of guerrilla warfare are popularly supported, right? And to your point that these, the Hezbollah and Hamas and PFLP, PIJ, DFLP, et cetera, they're, yeah, they're definitely not as far gone as is reported to us in the Western media.

I mean, the, Hezbollah FPV drone phenomenon is, it's monumental.

I mean, we keep repeating that, but it's monumental that like they're, you know, the Zionists have tried everything.

do we balance all of these actors, right? Because in the axis of resistance, you have state actors like Iran and Hamas is technically a state actor, right? Though they have a military aspect as well that is separate from the state in a way, right? But then you also have Hezbollah, which straddles that line.

You have Yemen, which straddles that line.

And then you have like PFLP, DFLP, Kitab, Hezbollah, although they just got integrated into the Iraqi army.

So again, like, It's those shifts I think need to be spoken about too, that like, that's actually a sign of Iraq regaining some of its sovereignty after what? I mean, you could say since Saddam till now, there was not real sovereignty.

There was Islamic Jihad and others.

The people I found it easiest to talk to were from the old sectarian, sorry, from the old secular nationalist groups like Al-Fatah or Democratic Front, communists.

But I did meet and engage with Islamists as well.

And it was always an argument with them.

Montgomery will later recall, who's UBL? Those of us not up on the lingo of Langley, we had no idea.

President Bush announces to the assembled staffers that the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine, or DFLP, has claimed responsibility for the attacks.

What do you know about these guys? Bush asks Morell.

The CIA briefer explains that the DFLP has a long history of terrorism, but promises the President that they do not have the resources to pull off an attack of this scale.
