Greek delegation to Lebanon

This morning(28/7/06) a Greek delegation to Lebanon has left
Athens. The delegation is expected to arrive at Beirut on Saturday, the
29th. The Greek activists together with people from France, Austria, Germany
and India are going to form a unified international civil mission. Its task
is to promote the demand for an immediate cease-fire and express the
solidarity of social movements to the people of Lebanon.

Yesterday in a press conference held in Athens representatives of the Greek
delegation said that after the fiasco of the Rome conference the so-called
international community actually gave a green light to Israel to wipe out
Lebanon and Palestine. They added that the key point for a fair and enduring
peace in Middle East is the withdrawal of the Israeli army from all occupied
Arab territories and the formation of an independent sovereign state in the
borders of ’67.

The following organizations participate in the Greek delegation:
Greek Social Forum, Association Intifada, Public Sector Workers
Confederation, Confederation of Professors, Union of Hospital Doctors of
Thessaloniki, Antiwar Internationalist Movement, Antiwar Movement of
Rethymno, Network for Political and Social Rights, Synaspismos-Coalition of
the Left (European Left Party), NAR (New Left Current), newspaper Avgi
