Barghouti to launch resistance

Former Fatah leader Marwan Barghouti, who is jailed in Israel for five
life sentences, published an unusual message on Monday in which he
called on the Palestinian public to launch a widespread resistance
against Israel. His remarks came ahead of Land Day on Friday, when
thousands of people are expected to protest along Israel's borders to
mark the deaths of six Israeli Arabs in March 1976 and protest the
Israeli government's land policies. Barghouti's remarks marked an
unusual turn for the Fatah leader, who for the first time called for a
complete halt in peace negotiations with Israel.
