Free Patriotic Movement leader Michel Aoun on Friday said the March 14 majority alliance "declared war on Syria when it left Lebanon. Had they been brave they would have confronted Syria on Lebanese terrain." Aoun, in a statement to his Orange Television, said: "When I called for a war of liberation it was aimed at liberating Lebanon's land and I said that by achieving this goal the war would end." "The goal has been achieved. So what is the reason for proceeding with the battle?" Aoun asked. "We have no interest but in building future relations, and we shouldn't be in collision with them. The relationship between the two nations should be neighborly and brotherly," he stressed. Aoun said Premier Fouad Saniora's Government "rejects calls to look for those missing in their land (buried in mass graves), that is why we cannot hold Syria responsible first" for the Lebanese missing in its jails. "The government should find those buried in its land and the government is capable of doing this because there is no village that does not know the location of its mass grave and who is responsible for it, be they Palestinians or Lebanese militias. The government knows, The intelligence agencies know and many journalists know where the mass graves are," Aoun added. He said a "minority" of those held in Syria had been held directly by the Syrian forces. The majority were either arrested by Lebanese police or held by pro-Syrian factions and turned on to the Syrians.
