       Chairman Yasser Arafat, of the Palestinian Liberation Organization, speaking in Khartoum, Sudan says,

       The Arab revolution is alive in the Arab conscience in spite of imperialist and Zionist conspiracies. … The holy war and the armed struggle will escalate. … I tell Reagan and his agents in our Arab world that the will of the Arab nation is from the will of Allah.  Therefore, the Arab nations will be victorious.
