(To Alessandra Mulas, Giampiero de Luca)

The mufti of Sayda Sheikh Salim Sussan, Sunni, in the interview highlighted the many difficulties of the area of ​​Sayda, in the south of Lebanon where he operates.

The Israeli enemy - He says - continues to threaten the Lebanese people and is the cause of the serious problems caused by the presence of a large number of refugees within the Lebanese borders. He therefore stresses that the origin of the problem is not to be found in the presence of so many refugees, who are instead the consequence of a project orchestrated from the outside and that nobody wants to take responsibility for a possible solution.

The suffering that is embodied in people forced to live in dramatic social, health and hygienic situations, without services and structures necessarily creates an alarm situation. Question where human rights are and where is the international community, completely absent from an issue that has lasted for over 70 years.

The main mistake is also updated when we want to impose a false idea of ​​Islam that likes to define Muslims "all terrorists"; religion cannot be confused with terrorism and those who are guilty of crimes against human beings cannot be recognized as religious.
