BEIRUT, 10 March 2003 — Thousands of Lebanese and Palestinians representing different political parties loyal to Syria traveled from Beirut to Damascus yesterday to demonstrate in support of Lebanon and Syria’s stand against a US-led war on Iraq.
The demonstrators gathered at the Baabda Presidential Palace near Beirut and were received by Lebanese President Emile Lahoud, who told them that “using force will enhance the instability and violence around the world.”
“Any division among the Arab ranks will facilitate the implementations of certain resolutions on us and will lead to the division of our region,” Lahoud said.
