Terrorism as a tool of the PCP

Observador2 September 2026 at 00:11

The article addresses the PCP's (Portuguese Communist Party) position regarding the PFLP (Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine), considering it merely a "liberation movement." The author contests this classification, arguing that History and official records demonstrate the opposite.

The text suggests that the PCP uses a narrative that minimizes or ignores terrorist acts attributed to the PFLP, framing them within an anti-colonialist struggle discourse. This perspective is presented as contradictory to documented historical facts.

The article presents itself as a correction to the "communist narrative," arguing that historical truth is "written in blood" and "recorded in official documents," exposing what the author considers an attempt to rewrite the facts.

The text is a critical opinion that questions the legitimacy of the PCP's association with organizations it classifies as terrorist, challenging the terminology used by the party to refer to the PFLP.
