Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine(PFLP)is an important faction in the Palestine liberation organization.Since its inception,it has advocated the use of terror against Israel and the west to win the Palestinian national liberation.In the decades since its inception,it has engineered a series of terrorist incidents,including hijacking,bombings,assassinations and kidnappings.Although these events have expanded the organization's influence,it has succeeded in attracting the attention of the world to the question of Palestine,but it has seriously damaged the image of the PLO and even the entire Palestinian people.This is a paper studies of the PFLP since the birth of a series of terrorist activities,through the background,the objectives of the development of the organization and platform and so on comprehensive study of the organization's strategy of terror.To avoid an overly one-sided understanding of a certain aspect,and according to the development course of the organization,to explore the predicament of the terrorist strategy and the development trend in the future.And combined the cooperation of the organization in the terrorist attacks with other extremist groups at different times,the effectiveness and influence of the PFLP strategy are preliminary.The full text includes three parts: introduction,text and conclusion,and the text is divided into five chapters.The first chapter discusses the early violent terrorist activities in the Palestinian area.In the early 20 th century,the British government,irrespective of the Arab peoples rights to appoint the Palestinian territories,and due to the mass migration Palestine,Jews in the region of Palestine implemented many armed attack against the British government and Jews.Some Jewish extremist groups also believe that the purpose of Zionism can be achieved through the use of force.The conflict between the two sides continues,leading to frequent terrorist attacks.Terrorist attacks and reprisals run through the history of the early 20 th century,casting a shadow over the local security environment and creating the extremist ideology ofterrorist violence.The second chapter introduces the formation and ideological program of PFLP.The Six-Day War in 1967 played an important role for the establishment of the PFLP,as mentioned above,before the Six-Day War,it is just the Palestinian branch in the Arab nationalist movement.After the war,the leaders George Habash,gradually abandoned the Nasserism,its thought platform and ideological quickly turn to the left,and more and more radical,step by step on the path of the violent and horrible.Through the formation and ideological program of PFLP,it can be seen that the organization has had a wide range of activities since its inception.After the Six-Day War,the organization of the increasingly prominent platform ideas far left color,advocated by means of terrorist attacks against Israeli ignore the more and more,in the end the rise in terrorist attacks as a strategy.The third chapter studies the background and implementation of the PFLP terrorist strategy.This section tries to figure out why so obsessed with the attacks of September 11,PFLP for the other Palestinian militant groups are gradually shift through politics era,to solve the problem of Palestinian PFLP are still on the way of terrorism wrong-headed.Investigate its reason,is to carry the terror attacks as a strategy of liberation of Palestine,a terrorist attack is not only a tactical behavior,PFLP by long-term,continuous and intensive,large-scale terrorist attacks,using the advantage of a terrorist attack,make up for the Palestinians against Israel strength weak,to fight against longer odds,destroy Israel.The fourth chapter analyzes several stages of the development of PFLP terror strategy.From 1967 to 1971,it was the phase of the PFLP,mainly in Jordan,which was based in Jordan and carried out a series of terrorist attacks in Europe and the Middle East.But the group's attempt to topple the Jordanian authorities angered the Jordanian government and led to its expulsion by the Jordanian army.From 1971 to1982,it was a golden age for the group in Lebanon,because the Lebanese government was weak and unable to intervene in the activities of the people.Since 1982,the PFLP has been in a state of decline due to its own causes and changes in the international environment.The fifth chapter discusses the evaluation and influence of the terror strategy.Since establishment of 51 years,a lot of Palestinian resistance are destroyed and carry can survive and reserve a place in the Palestinian politics,a unique feature of nature.Just as a pure terrorist organization is not comprehensive,because of the complexity of the organization,the evaluation of its terror strategy should be considered in many aspects.Only by evaluating this strategy from different perspectives can we reach a more objective and comprehensive conclusion.
