   This Terrible War! (2/2)

   [continued from previous message]   
      
   hold any religious sect responsible of this war. For this we shall work   
   together for the prosperity of Lebanon but with great sacrifices   
   enabling us to build a great nation.   
      
                We shall endure pain, especially if the crisis prolongs,   
   because we know that our solidarity is the condition of our permanence   
   as a free country able to become a model to all Arabs teaching them the   
   fullness of freedom for their nations; and then we may become a model to   
   the whole world as well. Let us not be afraid from death, because death   
   is the freedom of the living, this can be true, if we understood that   
   the individual and the community are strengthened by sanctity, and that   
   this sanctity is what makes a country strong and honest.   
      
                What remains, is that our hearts are with the displaced   
   scattered everywhere and are in need for us all and for our prayers. I   
   hope the Lord God shall inspire us to help them directly or through   
   charitable organizations and through the Higher Commission of Relief,   
   especially taking care of baby food and medications for chronic   
   diseases. But most importantly, is that the neighbors of these   
   organizations where the displaced took refuge to, do make all the   
   possible to let them feel the solidarity of the Lebanese people in the   
   midst of the distress.   
      
                We implore the Lord God to grant an end to the fight, that   
   we may all return to our homes and for our country to prosper in rest   
   and peace.
