THE 2006 WAR & LEBANESE GOVERNMENT’S ROLE
September 8, 2024In the current war in the South, the Lebanese government has very much taken a passive role, not exerting sufficient means to bring it to an end.
In 2006, the Acting Foreign Minister, Tareq Mitri, represented Lebanon at the UN Security Council where Lebanon had taken a much more active role in resolving the war between the genocidal Israel and Hezbollah.
“We do owe our people an honorable way out of this war. We owe our people, with your support, a solution that will not allow a further destruction and will help us rebuild our nation.”

English Script:
Tarek Mitri: Mr. President, Excellencies, I think you agree with me that we owe our people an honorable way out of this war. We do owe our people an honorable way out of this war. We owe our people, with your support, a solution that will not allow a further destruction and will help us rebuild our nation. A nation, we’ve been rebuilding, reconstructing especially in the last year. Lebanon, we are often told, has some significance, has importance in itself and for itself, for what it represents, for what it is, a country of plurality, diversity, tolerance, and therefore, let it not be the battleground for any war that serves the interests of others. Let not Lebanon be the battleground of the wars of others.
