Christians, Veterans Team Up to Protect Religious Memorials

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “(CNSNews.com) - The nation’s largest veterans’ service organization is teaming up with two Christian legal groups in an effort aimed at protecting Christian-themed war memorials from lawsuits that would remove them from public property.

The American Legion is asking its members to contribute to a catalog of war memorials that feature crosses and other religious symbols. The group will monitor its database of memorials and will notify the Alliance Defense Fund and the Liberty Legal Institute of any attempts by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) and similar groups to challenge their constitutionality.”

“Fight on, Lebanon”
By Elias Bejjani
FrontPageMagazine.com | May 21, 2007

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “In my capacity as the Lebanese Canadian Coordinating Council (LCCC) chairman, I strongly denounce the criminal attack against the Lebanese Army and Security Forces in North Lebanon over the weekend by gunmen of the “Fatah al-Islam” group which is affiliated – in decision-making and in weapons – with the Syrian Intelligence Services.
The rulers in Damascus had brought in its mercenary fighters several months ago to the Palestinian Camps in Lebanon with the objective of stirring strife, creating an anarchy situation, obstructing the creation of the International Tribunal and, most importantly, prevent the rise of a strong self-reliant Lebanese State and institutions that would spread its control over every inch of Lebanese soil and disarm the militias and impose the rule of law.

It is worth mentioning in this context that the Syrian intelligence militia, camouflaged under the name of “Fatah al-Islam,” was behind the bus bombing crime in the town of Ain Alaq in the North Meten Lebanese region that killed innocent Lebanese civilians this past February.

The LCCC holds the Syrian regime and the Lebanese opposition in all its factions fully responsible for the bloody clashes and demands the Lebanese and international judiciary prosecute its leadership for the attacks it has committed on the legitimacy of the Lebanese State, obstructing the operation of its constitutional institutions, creating a state of security anarchy, undermining the Lebanese economy and impoverishing the Lebanese people and pushing them to emigrate.”
