World Council of the Cedars Revolution and International Lebanese Committee for UNSCR1559 did it again.
 

Congratulations Once Again...........

A few days after the start of Israel / Hezbollah conflict, in July (last month), the World Council of the Cedars Revolution (WCCR) and International Lebanese Committee for UNSCR 1559 (ILC-UNSCR1559), commissioned a team of experts, headed by our Academic Advisor and Political Analyst Professor Walid Phares, to draft a resolution to help resolve the Israel / Lebanon / Hezbollah conflict; and on our behalf, submit the Draft Resolution to the United Nations Security Council (UNSC).

On the 31st of July, we distributed to the worldwide membership and support base, a memorandum of the Draft Resolution which had been submitted to the UNSC, that day. Undoutedly, you have saved your copy.

On Sunday the 6th of August, the UNSC had drafted and distributed its own UNSC Resolution which is known by France & USA ( Please see attachment).

On comparison, we find that the Proposed UNSC resolution by France & USA  has embodied the essence of 14 provisions from the draft resolution which was prepared by the team on behalf of the WCCR and ILC- UNSCR1559. That in turn represents Eighty Percent of the Draft Resolution by the UNSC.

As such, at a time of destruction, demolition and defiance, it's gratifying to know that the Lebanese Diaspora has the capacity to mobilize the academic advice of Professor Walid Phares and the energies and tenacity of Tom Harb with enormous support from John Hajjar, Sami Khoury, Joanne Fakher, Charbel Barakat, Dr Rachid Rahme, Toni Nissi, Dr Annis Karam, Fadi Bark, Eblan Farris , the Latin America team with George Chaya and Claudia Chater the European team with Joseph Fadel and Roni Doumit and particularly the team in Lebanon and many more names we will announce, to provide solutions which will restore Lebanon's dignity and territorial integrity.

Whilst drafting a resolution does not solve the problems, it certainly helps to ensure that we are all working in one direction with a common objective of serving Lebanon's best interests. It clearly identifies that our team is in tune with the thought process of the International Community. It places our team in the best possible position to have our submissions received with respect, heard and acted upon.

God bless you all and keep up the good work, Lebanon needs all of us more now than ever before.

Joseph P. Baini  President
