Aoun from Syria: Time to Return to Our Roots, Get Out of Isolation
Free Patriotic Movement leader Michel Aoun on Wednesday said from Syria that it's time to return to “our roots and get out of isolation.”
“Our goal is to return to our environment, to our roots,” he told FPM supporters after taking part in a mass marking St. Maroun Day in Brad, Aleppo.
"Our goal is not utilitarian, but to get out of isolation,” he stressed.
“Christianity and Islam share the same values,” Aoun said.
He pointed to Isalmphobia, accusing “some” of taking the word “phobia” and sticking it onto Islam, citing the church bombings in Baghdad and Alexandria.
“We are here to tell the whole world that this region will remain a meeting place of diverse religions,” Aoun pledged.
