Background

The (Palestinian) National and Islamic Forces group was formed shortly after the outbreak of the second intifada (September 28, 2000 – February 8, 2005) in 2000. It is a committee comprised of representatives from each of the most important Palestinian political factions, both mainstream and radical with the authorization of Yasser Arafat and led by Marwan Barghouti (until he was imprisoned in 2002). The coalition coordinates the agenda of its members and helps plan and execute joint political actions against Israel. According to the Anti-Defamation League, the group enjoyed significant influence during the second intifada, but since the election of Mahmoud Abbas in 2005 it has been less active.

The coalition includes both PLO and non-PLO factions, some organizations are listed as terrorist in the West. The group's committee includes representatives of the following 15 organizations:

It is a similar organization to its successor, the Joint Room for Palestinian Resistance Factions in the way that it was a temporary coalition of Palestinian forces against Israel.

The Logo

[Joint Room for Palestinian Resistance Factions] image located by Esteban Rivera, 27 December 2023

Emblem description: A ring of joined hands encircles a green map of Israel and the territories. In the perimeter of a circle around the hands the words "National and Islamic Forces" appear in both English and Arabic. Palestinian flags frame the circle, and a small image of the Al Aqsa Mosque appears at the top.

Explanation: The map of Israel and the territories, nested in the joined hands, signifies the organization's aim of ruling that land. The flags symbolizes Palestinian nationalism, as does the Al Aqsa Mosque; the mosque also expresses a religious sentiment. The joined hands are symbolic of the unity of the different groups that are part of the organization.

For the moment there is no evidence of the existence of a flag.
