Mikati speaks of efforts to halt Israeli threats against Lebanon, reach Gaza truce

[Naharnet] Caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati on Monday said that ''diplomatic contacts are active in several directions to halt the Israeli threats against Leb
...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds.

''The international community must play a decisive and instant role in calming the tensions and reining in the continued Israeli aggression against Lebanon,'' he went on to say.
