The Palestinian Cause has always been one of the political constants of the Baath Arab Socialist Party throughout its history of struggle. In fact, (BASP) reflects the political nature of the Syrians where the Palestinian Cause is considered as a core issue in their national ideology.

Thus, Palestine Office was created since the birth of the Baath Party, this office was in line with  those offices which formed the organizational and struggle structure of the Baath Party.

Moreover , it is obvious that any member of the party(BASP) could not get a  full membership unless he had carried out a military operation inside the Arab occupied territories.

The Palestinian cause has always been present  in all the Baath Party conferences , because it's not just the cause of the Palestinians, but it is the most fundamental issue  of every genuine Arab who sincerely believes in this cause irrespective of his creed .

Jerusalem is a holy land owing to the existence of al-Aqsa mosque , Dome of the Rock and the Church of the Resurrection . Therefore it is considered the spiritual capital of hundreds of millions of the followers of the three heavenly  religions. Besides, Palestine is part and parcel of the history of Syria, which has been riven with division by the notorious Sykes-Picot agreement .

 Al-Quds Day is an occasion to remind those who suffered the political dementia that Jerusalem is the holy occupied land. It  should remain in the conscience of everyone. There must be sincere calls for jihad aimed at restoring all holy lands  in the Arab countries not aiming at destroying nations and instigating sedition and sectarianism.

The anniversary of al-Quds Day should be shifted from an annual ceremony into a resistant collective work devoted to unite the Arabs' goals. Thus gun should be aimed  toward the Zionist enemy who is behind the conspiracy that triggered the conflict in the Arab countries.

The Zionist enemy being pampered by the United States and some of its allies of the region, is relentlessly endeavoring to create all kinds of conflicts in the Arabic and Islamic countries .

History necessitates  all the Arab and Muslim leaders to unify their stances  to confront  the conspiracies against the Arab  societies, especially Syria. While the heroic  Syrian army is proudly waging a historic confrontation battle against the US-Zionist project which exploits the Takfiri mercenaries to destroy the region .

 Syria is honorably leading the project of the Arab resistance not only to defend its territories and principles, but also in defense of the Arab ideology from the Ocean to the Gulf.
