Those who speak in the name of Palestine stand up and say: Do not enter Lebanon. They forget or try to disregard or want us and the world to forget or disregard the fact that Lebanon is not Palestine and that Beirut is the capital of Lebanon and not of Palestine. Who complained when we entered Lebanon? It was not the president of Lebanon, its foreign minister, prime minister or speaker of the Chamber of Deputies. It was the PLO's foreign minister, the chief of the PLO's Political Department or the PLO Executive Committee's chairman or so-and-so speaking in the name of Palestine. Naturally, such a person must carry a rifle to complain against Syria. By what ethical, patriotic and legal logic do these persons stand and say: Leave Lebanon, withdraw from Lebanon and have no connection with Lebanon. How does a Palestinian stand up in Lebanon to tell the Syrian: Do not enter Lebanon. (it) |
