Occupied Jerusalem, (SANA) - Greek Orthodox Archbishop of Sebastia,
Archbishop Atallah Hanna, affirmed that those who bear arms against
the Syrian people and the Syrian Army - regardless of their names
and affiliations - are mere pawns that serve Israel and its project
to divide and control the Arab region.
In an interview broadcast on al-Mayadin TV on Friday, Archbishop
Hanna said that the people who abduct, murder and slaughter in Syria
are the enemies of the Arab nation, just like Israel with which they
share goals and criminal nature.
He stressed that the violence and murder against the people and state
in Syria has nothing to do with any just demands; rather it merely
seeks to destroy the Syrian state.
Archbishop Hanna warned any attack on Syria is an attack on the Arab
nation, and that the true national opposition is the one that commits
to its country's principles and flies its flag, not the flag of the
French mandate, and that doesn't receive orders from abroad.
He warned that some western countries' granting of visas to displaced
Syrian Christians in Lebanon under humanitarian pretexts is part of
an Israeli plan to drive Christians out of the Arab region, calling
on Arab Christians - whether in Syria or in other Arab countries -
to remain in their countries and defend them alongside their Muslim
brethren.
