NNA – MP Mark Daou wrote today on platform ldquo;Xrdquo;:nbsp;ldquo;First, protecting Lebanon from any attack is the absolute priority. Neither Hezbollah nor Iran have any right to plunge Lebanon into a brutalnbsp;war in the service of a regional agenda.quot;

He added, quot;Secondly, yesterday, today and tomorrow, we are with the Palestinian people,nbsp;their rights, and their state with Jerusalem as their capital, and with the right of the Palestinian people to self-defense until a just and comprehensive peace is achieved. The Palestinian people have proven over time that they are steadfast and fighters, no matter how adverse the circumstances…quot;

Daou went on, quot;Thirdly, there is no stability and peace in the region without a final solution to the Palestinian issue, and there is no victory over all religious extremism and armed attacks on civilians and places of worship without a just and comprehensive solution that grants the Palestinians their rights.quot;

He added, quot;Fourth, every oppressor has a day, no matter how much he thinks his weapon protects him, and his arrogance is a deterrent force against a people who have the right to life,nbsp;to a state, to dignity, and sovereignty in any state.quot;

quot;Finally, Lebanon is able to support Palestine to the extent of the strength of its state. Hence, if the state becomes weak and Lebanon turns into an undermined arena, then the cause will lose a supportive state, only to find an armed arena with militias fighting its people more than it stands with Palestine and voicesnbsp;slogans from a time that has ended with no return.rdquo;
