(Jerusalem Post) Jonathan Spyer - The terrorist network maintained by the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) in the West Bank has shown increased capacities and activity in recent months. Growing financial and logistical support from Tehran to the PFLP has been reported since 2013. The specific reason for Iran's renewed support for the PFLP relates to the Syrian civil war. Hamas strongly supported the Syrian rebellion, leading to a rupture in Tehran's support to it which has not been entirely repaired. This led Tehran to look further afield in order to build armed networks in the West Bank. The PFLP strongly supported Assad throughout the war. The PFLP is a small organization with a somewhat eccentric secular and leftist ideology possessing little appeal among the broad masses of the conservative, religious Palestinian population. It possesses, nevertheless, a tight organizational structure, a cadre of fiercely loyal operatives, and a willingness to engage in violence. The writer is director of the Middle East Center for Reporting and Analysis.2020-05-15 00:00:00Full Article
