Syrian Majlis Speaker Mahmoud al-Abrash said here on Saturday that ‘our legal responsibility is to counter any plan to divide Palestine’. Addressing the Fifth International Conference on Intifada, he noted that the plan presented to the UN advocating Palestine division is a plot hatched by the big powers in a bid to support Israel. Syrian parliament has always underlined the Palestinians’ rights to return to their homeland, he said, adding that today’s world, even the westerners have come to understand that the Palestinians are entitled to having an independent state. Parliamentary delegations including several speakers, leading political figures and scholars from 50 Islamic and non-Islamic countries as well as leaders of several Palestinian groups are taking part in the two-day event which is focusing on the motto of “Palestine, a land only for Palestinians”. The motto adopted by the conference is a reflection of the fact that Palestinians “are not” in search of a land because they already have their own one. The conference aims to mobilize all official and non-official capacities of the Muslim World as well as other freedom-loving countries to support Intifada and back the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people to end occupation of their homeland, return homeless Palestinians to their motherland and vindicate the right of the Palestinians to determine their own destiny.
