The Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) is a secular Palestinian nationalist organization. Since the 1993 Oslo Accords, it has collaborated with the Zionist occupier.[1]

History

During the 1980s, the occupier funded religious organizations that provided social services in Palestine in order to shift Palestinians' loyalty away from the PLO.

The PLO lost mass support from Palestinians after signing the Oslo Accords with the occupier in 1993. After the accords, settlers continued invading the West Bank, doubling their population by 2003. At the Camp David Accords in 2000, the PLO accepted an agreement that divided the West Bank into 69 Palestinian blocs similar to South African bantustans. They surrendered control of the border and checkpoints the occupier. In 2006, the Palestinian people elected the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas).[1]
