Sons of the Land

In the perspective of observers, sons of the Land is a political organization with ethnic trends firstly and the Palestinian National trends secondly. The movement refused to recognize the State of Israel and participation in parliamentary elections, which calls it political game, and it wanted to find a Palestinian national Arab solution to the problem of the Palestinian people. The initiation of formation of sons of the Land goes back to the early seventies and in addition to sectarian influence among Arab students studying in Israeli universities it could achieve considerable success in Arab local council elections in the eighties. Since early Nineties, the movement saw intellectual and political developments. Changes in the Arab countries and fundamental changes in the program of the PLO, which resulted in its current peaceful policy, is reason to these developments. Many believe that the sons of the Land is natural continue of (or heir) Earth movement which was formed in the late fifties in Arab areas and in half of the sixties the Israeli authorities banned its activities.
