Defence for Children International – Palestine Section
Defence for Children International – Palestine Section (DCI-Pal) is a “non-governmental child rights organisation” with links to the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), a terrorist entity blacklisted by the European Union, United States and Canada.
Both DCI-Pal’s Founder and Director, Rifat Kassis, and its President, Randa Siniora, are connected to the PFLP through their respective associations with Nassar Ibrahim, former editor of the PFLP’s weekly newspaper; and Shawan Jabarin, a convicted PFLP terrorist who has been refused entry to Jordan. Kassis is on the Board of Directors of the Alternative Information Center (AIC), where Ibrahim is Policy Director; while Siniora is on the General Assembly of Al-Haq, where Jabarin is General Director.
Al-Haq is also promoted on the DCI-Pal website, and Shawan Jabarin was at one time on the DCI-Pal Board of Directors.
