March 14 Calls on Lebanese to Protect their Nation and Prevent Syrian Comeback

The majority March 14 alliance on Sunday called on the various Lebanese people to carry on with the battle of independence, safeguard Lebanon and prevent a Syrian comeback.

 

“We urge all Lebanese to carry on with the battle of independence that was launched by the Maronite church Sept. 20, 2000 and materialized on March 14, 2005 upon the assassination of former Premier Rafik Hariri and then crystallized by the martyrdom of politicians, journalists, military officers and innocent people,” said a statement by March 14 Forces, read by former MP Faris Soeid from Bkirki.

 

The statement called on the Lebanese to “protect their nation and prevent the Syrian regime from returning.”

It stressed its rejection to the verbal campaign against Bkirki “because it targets the basics of coexistence and the rest of the Lebanese committed to coexistence.”
