Protest in Beirut

Dear comrades and friends

Greetings from Beirut

About 25.000 protesters demonstrated in Beirut on March 20 demanding the change of the sectarian system in Lebanon towards a democratic secular state that guarantees the political and the socio-economic rights of the Lebanese people.

This demonstration is the largest organized by the secular democratic forces since long years, and constituted a big event in Lebanon towards changing the sectarian nature of the system.

Here we send you a link to an English newspaper coverage of the demonstrations:
