1974 PALESTINE NATIONAL COUNCIL IN CAIRO

THE LOGIC FOR THOSE CONTINUED ATTACKS IS TO BE FOUND IN THE SO-CALLED PHASE PLAN ADOPTED IN 1974 BY THE PALESTINE NATIONAL COUNCIL IN CAIRO. Realizing that they would never be able to destroy Israel in one fell swoop, the Palestinians adopted a graduated plan to wipe out Israel. First, accept any territory given to them in any part of historic Palestine. Then, use that sanctuary to wage war until Israel is destroyed.
