RESIST (electoral list)
Appearance
RESIST is the name of an electoral list formed as a result of the coalition between the Marxist-Leninist Workers' Party of Belgium (PTB) and the Pan-Arabist Arab European League (AEL) for the Belgian federal election, 2003 in the Flemish Region.
RESIST was led by PTB lawyer Zohra Othman, herself an ethnic Arab of Moroccan extraction, and received 10,059 votes.[1] Consequently, AEL distanced itself from PTB and formed a new party called the Moslim Democratische Partij.
Dyab Abou Jahjah's group had participated in Antwerp PTB lists for the 1999 election.
