Dear Mike:

Please find as per below the July Report of the US Committee for a Free Lebanon

(USCFL) www.freelebanon.org the premier Lebanese American lobbying

organization in the world.

You can access all articles by going to our Home Page at www.freelebanon.org

As usual, Mike, your intellectual contribution is always welcome and we

Appreciate any timely article or analysis that will advance freedom and democracy in

Lebanon and the Near East.

Topics Covered during the month of July:

1. Heard on the Hill: Washington Update

2. Support Senator Bob Graham (D-FL) in our fight against Syria and Hizballah

3. Lebanese seek end to Syrian stranglehold

4. A Plea to America

5. Who is teaching the US about the Middle East?

6. With friends like the Saudis, who needs enemies?

7. Holding Syria Accountable

8. Who needs Arab Oil?

9. Fears of Arab Democracy

11.Resolutions/Action Items of the World Maronite Congress 2002

12.Syria, UN Resolution 520 and the Security Council

13.Hang the Maronites ....if you Dare!!!

Not to be repetitive, we hold that the United States has vital interests in

The Middle East and see the region, with its profusion of dictatorships, radical

ideologies, existential conflicts, border disagreements, political violence,

and weapons of mass destruction as a major source of problems for the Free

World.

Toward this end, we seek to help shape the intellectual climate in which U.S.

foreign policy is made by addressing key issues regarding the region in an

accessible way and for a sophisticated public.

We also function as a resource for individuals and institutions seeking not

Only accurate and reliable information, but also new, fresh and sometimes

Controversial perspectives, combined with innovative and effective solutions, for Lebanon

And the Lebanese people. Consequently, we serve as a vehicle to disseminate

Information on such human rights abuses to institutions and policymakers in the United

States and abroad that are capable of exercising political, economic, military or

Spiritual leverage to bring these abuses to an end and hold those responsible to

account.

Any financial support would be greatly appreciated. Please go to the following

Link and follow the instructions to help us becoming more active than ever

Also any Email addreses and names you could forward us to expand our global

Outreach even further would be equally welcome. Our current database of Lebanese

Nationalists and other close friends of Lebanon worldwide stands today at 29,000.

As you are aware of, the "pro-Syrian" forces are aggressively lobbying and

Even "pounding" the Washington political establishment to stall our efforts and

Those of our allies. It is only through your continuous support that we'll get

Lebanon free, strong and prosperous again.

Regards

The USCFL Task Force
