Rejectionist Front
The Rejectionist Front (Arabic: جبهة الرفض) or Front of the Palestinian Forces Rejecting Solutions of Surrender (جبهة القوى الفلسطينية الرافضة للحلول الإستسلامية) was a political coalition formed in 1974 by radical Palestinian factions who rejected the Ten Point Program adopted by the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) in its 12th Palestinian National Congress (PNC) session. Origins While affirming the PLO's commitment to fight Israel, the Fatah-sponsored Ten Point Program authorized the PLO to "establish nindependent combatant national authority for the people over every part of Palestinian territory that is liberated", which was regarded by many Palestinians as a possible first step towards a two-state proposal.

The rectification movement resulted in the once monolithic Filipino communist party fragmenting into at least eight warring factions during the 1990s. Luis Jalandoni, formerly a negotiator for the National Democratic Front of the Philippines, has stated that from 1985 until 1991, a renegade group within the party leadership of the CPP was responsible for major errors that caused serious losses in the revolution's mass base. These errors included the implementation of a program to root out infiltrators called ''Kampanyang Ahos'' ("Kahos") and the adoption of an erroneous political line brought about by modern revisionism. The loss in mass base ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

() refers to those Shia Muslims who reject the legitimacy of the caliphates of Abu Bakr (), Umar (), and Uthman (), in favor of Ali ibn Abi Talib (), the cousin and son-in-law of the Islamic prophet Muhammad. In particular, the term appears in Sunni polemics as a derogatory nickname for Twelvers, who constitute the overwhelming majority of the Shia community. In turn, Twelvers have reinterpreted this nickname favorably to signify their rejection of tyranny and their struggle against perceived Sunni oppression. Definition The term (or , , ) refers to those Shia Muslims who 'reject' the legitimacy of the caliphates of Abu Bakr (), Umar (), and Uthman (). One after another, these caliphs succeeded the Islamic prophet Muhammad after he died in 632 CE. In particular, the term is applied to Twelvers, who constitute the vast majority of Shias.
