While so-called leaders of the Palestinian resistance from Fatah and Hamas were traveling to Egypt to hold talks in five star hotels, another group of Palestinians were actually doing work worthy of the words "liberation and resistance."
In an organized and disciplined manner, nearly 150 Palestinian youths along with some international solidarity supporters set up a Palestinian tent village and gave it the name Bab al-Shams — the Gate of the Sun. Cooperating with owners of Palestinian lands in areas south of Ramallah and East of Jerusalem, these new young revolutionaries did more to push the Palestinian political agenda than the well-paid fat cats that were loitering in Cairo hotels.
