The factions said the powers that enabled Balfour have continued to shield the Zionist entity, supplying it with weapons and rockets used to kill civilians, including children and women, and to demolish homes—actions they described as devoid of basic humanity and at odds with stated commitments to human rights.
The statement called the Balfour Declaration an open wound in the memory of Palestinians and the wider Arab and free world, insisting the crime is unforgivable and cannot be allowed to lapse. The groups rejected all normalization with Israel and denounced attempts to legitimize its existence, labeling the seizure of Palestinian land a historic crime and a betrayal of Palestinian steadfastness and the blood of martyrs.
Affirming continued Palestinian resilience, the factions pledged to resist all Zionist-American plans aimed at uprooting the Palestinian presence, vowing not to yield an inch of Palestinian soil regardless of cost or sacrifice. They urged national unity as a strategic necessity and the essential path toward liberating Palestine, calling on all Palestinian components to pursue genuine partnership and a coordinated national resistance for freedom and independence.
Reiterating their commitment to resistance in all its forms, the statement placed armed struggle at the forefront of options to confront Israeli crimes, underscoring that the right to jihad and resistance will not be relinquished until the aggression is repelled.
In closing, the factions appealed to the Arab world and the international community to sustain pressure and persistent action, warning that the Palestinian tragedy continues amid ongoing siege and massacres—which they said occur with the complicity of Western and American powers.
