لا زال أبناء شعبنا الفلسطيني الأعزل أكثر تصميماً على تجسيد الحقوق الفلسطينية التاريخية والثابتة في أرضهم وفي مقدمتها حقهم في تقرير المصير وإقامة الدولة الفلسطينية المستقلة وعاصمتها القدس الشريف، وفي موازاة ذلك لا زالت قوات الاحتلال الإسرائيلي تمارس أبشع عمليات القتل والإبادة والتدمير بحق أبناء شعبنا منتهكة بذلك كافة الأعراف والمواثيق الإنسانية والدولية، و******ضاربة بعرض الحائط****** كافة الالتزامات والاتفاقيات التي وقعتها برعاية دولية مع الفلسطينيين لإحلال السلام العادل والشامل في المنطقة بدلاً من إراقة الدماء ومع استمرار التصعيد العسكري الإسرائيلي بحق شعبنا، تواصل حماة العرين رصد الانتهاكات الإسرائيلية بحق شعبنا خلال شهر أغسطس 2002م.
