MP Khaled Daher stepped up calls on Thursday for the deployment of the Lebanese army along the border with Syria, during a ceremony in the village of Daouseh - Akkar, marking the second anniversary of the Syrian revolution, and in commemoration of the two slain Sheikhs Ahmed Abdel-Wahed and Mohamed Merheb, who were killed at an army checkpoint ten months ago, in the village of Koueikhat (Akkar). He denounced the "unjust campaign to smear the image of the displaced Syrians by accusing them of belonging to al-Nusra front." The lawmaker felt that hosting the displaced Syrians was "a humanitarian and national duty, even if the price was blood, as was the case for Sheikh Ahmed Abdel-Wahed." "We will not succumb to the "Chabbiha of Bashar al-Assad or the Syrian raids on Ersal (...)," he warned, regretting that "some in Lebanon support the criminal Syrian regime in return for handfuls of money by the Iranian regime." Daher finally prompted the Arab League to confront recurrent Syrian offensives on Lebanon and demanded the deployment of the Lebanese army along the Syrian-Lebanese borders.
