Palestinian nationalist and Islamic movements on Sunday warned the new Palestinian government of Mahmoud Abbas against budging to Zionist and American pressure. The coalition of the Islamic and nationalist forces issued a leaflet Sunday, urging the Abbasâ government to be faithful to the legitimate rights and aspirations of the Palestinian people. âThe government must be faithful and answerable to the people of Palestine, not to the criminal Zionist aggressors and their obsequious American allies,â said the leaflet. The leaflet tacitly warned that the Palestinian people and its resistance forces would topple the government if it deviated from the national line. In addition, the leaflet called for cementing internal Palestinian unity, saying national unity was the sole guarantee for the continuity of Palestinian struggle for freedom, liberation and independence.
