Jibril Vows Not to Give Up Arms
Ahmad Jibril, head of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command (PFLP-GC), said his group will not surrender its weapons to the Lebanese government "if its view regarding the Palestinian issue is confined to the security aspect only."
In an interview with pan-Arab al-Jazeera TV late Saturday, Jibril urged the Lebanese government to address Palestinian refugee issues first.
He said the Lebanese Cabinet should approve a law "as is happening in Syria" dealing with the political situation as well as the living and social conditions of Palestinian refugees.
"After the Palestinians in Lebanon feel assured of their wellbeing, we will then discuss security issues," Jibril said.
