Nom de guerre of Palestinian Marxist-Leninist revolutionary Mustafa Ali Al-Zabri, the 2nd chairman of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP). He was among the founding members of the organization, and a right-hand man of George Habash in Jordan and Lebanon. He was elected as chairman in 2000 after the resignation of Habash, and conducted operations against the Israeli occupation from inside Palestine, having been able to return there as a member of the PLO council, raising the now well-known slogan “I returned to fight, not negotiate” (عدنا لنقاوم لا لنساوم). He was assassinated by an Israeli Apache helicopter on August 27th, 2001 in Bireh, Palestine. His assassination triggered an operation on October 17th in which Israeli Tourism Minister Rehavam Ze’evi was assassinated by the PFLP in retribution, to date the highest-ranking Israeli politician to be assassinated by a Palestinian.
