Ibtisam Posted August 20, 2008 Lebanon's Shia Hezbollah and Sunni Salafist groups have signed a memorandum of understanding aimed at defusing tension in the country. The deal was inked by Sheikh Ibrahim Amin Al-Sayyed, head of the Hazebollah Political Council and Sheikh Hassan al-Chahhal from the Salafist side at the Safir Metropolitan Hotel in Beirut on Monday. According to Sheikh Shahhal, the signing of the agreement was approved by the Future Movement, the main Lebanese Sunni party. The accord prohibits any Muslim group from attacking fellow Muslims and advises against incitements which serve the purpose of enemies seeking to foment discord among different Muslim sects. Both groups pledged to help preserve natioal unity and defend each other against third party assaults. source: http://www.presstv.ir/Detail.aspx?id=66945§ionid=351020203 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jacaylbaro Posted August 20, 2008 good move but i don't think the Shias will keep their promise. In the history they are known to be the first who break such agreements. congratulations to the both sides ,,,,,,,,, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
