'''PLO's Ten Point Program''' (in [[Arabic]]: برنامج النقاط العشر), is the name of the plan accepted by the [[Palestinian National Council]] (PNC), the legislative body of the [[Palestine Liberation Organization]] (PLO), during the 12th meeting of the PNC which was held in Cairo on 8 June 1974.

Over the years, negotiations took place between Israel and the PLO as well as other Palestinian leaderships, all while there was still a strong concern among large parts of the Israeli public and the Israeli leadership that the negotiations were not sincere, and that the Palestinians' willingness to compromise is just a smoke-screen for implementing the Ten Point Program.
When the [[Oslo Accords]] were signed, many Israeli right-wing politicians openly claimed that this is part of the ploy to implement the Ten Point Program.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.nfc.co.il/archive/003-D-6200-00.html?tag=23-15-32 |title=News1 | מבט פלשתיני לפתרון הסכסוך |website=Nfc.co.il |date=2012-10-30 |accessdate=2016-11-19}}</ref><!-- Date, Hebrew title, and translated title would be very useful on this reference.--> Some of them based this claim on the fact that only 12 days before the signing of the Oslo Accords (September 13, 1993), a pre-recorded speech directed towards the Palestinian people by Arafat himself was broadcast on the Jordanian radio, in which Arafat made the following statement about the Oslo agreement:
:{{Cquote|[the agreement] will be a basis for an independent Palestinian state in accordance with the Palestinian National Council resolution issued in 1974... The PNC resolution issued in 1974 calls for the establishment of a national authority on any part of Palestinian soil from which Israel withdraws or which is liberated.<ref name=autogenerated1>[http://www.mfa.gov.il/MFA/Archive/Peace+Process/1996/INCITEMENT%20TO%20VIOLENCE%20AGAINST%20ISRAEL%20BY%20LEADERSHI

The [[Foreign Affairs Minister of Israel|Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs]] has regarded that the Palestinian leadership asserted that the Oslo Accord is part of the PLO's 1974 phased plan for Israel's destruction.<ref name=autogenerated1 />
The validity of PLO's Phased Plan nowadays is unclear. PLO's Phased Plan was never officially canceled, but in general, the Palestinian leadership has stopped referring to it since the late 1980s. Recently, however, several statements made by PLO officials on the subject indicate that the Phased Plan has not been abandoned – most notably the statement of the PLO ambassador to Lebanon which stated in an interview that the "two-state solution will lead to the collapse of Israel".<ref>{{cite web|author=www.memri.org |url=http://www.memri.org/report/en/0/0/0/0/0/0/3297.htm |title=Palestinian Ambassador to Lebanon Abbas Zaki: Two-State Solution Will Lead to the Collapse of Israel |website=Memri.org |date= |accessdate=2016-11-19}}</ref>
Nowadays there is a debate within the Israeli public and leadership on whether the PLO's Phased Plan still represent the thinking patterns and official policy of certain factions within the Palestinian leadership and of the Palestinian people and whether the Palestinian public and leadership still aim to ultimately take control over the entire region of [[Palestine (region)|Palestine]] or do Palestinian territorial claims apply only to the [[West Bank]] (including [[East Jerusalem]]) and the [[Gaza Strip]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ynet.co.il/articles/0,7340,L-3344810,00.html |title=ynet מה עושים כשהמודיעין סותר את עצמו? - חדשות |website=Ynet.co.il |date=2014-09-17 |accessdate=2016-11-19}}</ref><ref[http://reut-institute.org/he/Publication.aspx?PublicationId=113</ref>
