Amongst the ten founding members all but Hamas were headquartered in Damascus. Eight of the founding members were previously members of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), the other two being Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad . Two factions left the Alliance in 1998.2 The Alliance calls for the liberation of all Palestinian lands. It has sometimes been referred to as the ' Damascus 10' . The Islamist Hamas, Fatah 's main political rival, did not participate in the 1996 Palestinian general election , taking the position that doing so would lend legitimacy to the Palestinian National Authority (PNA), which was created out of what they called unacceptable negotiations and compromises with Israel . Hamas also boycotted the 2005 Palestinian presidential election , but fielded candidates at the 2006 Palestinian legislative election , winning 74 of the 128 seats in the Palestinian Legislative Council , and subsequently forming government.3 Al-Mustaqbal . ملف السلاح الفلسطيني يعيد طرح مشروع "المرجعية الموحدة" خارطة القوى الفلسطينية في لبنان وتوزعاتها الميدانية والسياسية Anders Strindberg; Mats Wärn (7 November 2011).
