RESIST
RESIST is the name of an electoral list formed as a result of the coalition between Marxist-Leninist Workers Party of Belgium (PTB) and Pan-Arabist Arab European League (AEL) for the 2003 federal election 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 named Moslim Democratische Partij.
Abou Jahjah's group had participated in Antwerp PTB lists for the 1999 election.
