Relatives of Alleged Fatah al-Islam Members Want Justice

A news I read from Naharnet on the first day of August.

“Relatives of alleged members of an Islamist group that fought a 15-week battle with the Lebanese army last year staged a protest on Friday demanding their release from jail.”

After this protest, we also saw Future Movement MP, Moustafa Alloush, with them. He was attacked during the protest but after it he clearly stated that it wasn’t the protesters who hit him and they were non-Salafist.

Fatah Islam Will Stand by Beirut’s Sunnis if Threatened

The terrorist Fatah al-Islam group has said it will stand by the Sunnis if Beirut was threatened.
In a statement published by the pan-Arab daily al-Hayat on Thursday under the headline: “Lies and Excuses to Slaughter Sunnis in Lebanon,” Fatah al-Islam warned to confront “anybody who wants to bow the heads of our people in Beirut,” an indirect reference to Hizbullah.

“What has happened in Beirut – the invasion, the killing, the incineration, the humiliation against the Sunnis — is not acceptable,” Fatah al-Islam said.

It said repeated excuses by Hizbullah and the opposition, justifying their action was a response to the government’s measures, “were only a lie,” the statement said.
