"In the face of Israel's systematic killing of our people, the
indiscriminate bombing of our towns, the scorching of our villages, and
the attempted destruction of our civil infrastructure, we say No! In the
face of the forced expulsion of a quarter of our population from their
homes throughout Lebanon, and the complicity of governments and
international bodies, we re-affirm the acts of civil resistance that
began from the first day of the Israeli assault, and we stress and add
the urgent need to act!," said Rasha Salti, one of the organizers of
this national event.

"An international civilian presence in Lebanon is not only an act of
solidarity with the Lebanese people in the face of unparalleled Israeli
aggression, it is an act of moral courage to defy the will of those who
would seek to alienate the West from the rest and create a new Middle
East out of the rubble and blood of the region," said Huwaida Arraf,
co-founder of the International Solidarity Movement and campaign
co-organizer. "After having witnessed the wholesale destruction of
villages by Israel's air force and navy and having visited the victims
(so-called displaced) of Israel's policy of cleansing Lebanese civilians
from their homes," continued Arraf, "it is imperative to go south and
reach those who have stayed behind to resist by steadfastly remaining on
their land."
