DAMASCUS, (SANA)- Members of a US religious  Delegation currently is visiting Syria have expressed sorrow that US gave Israel the green light for 33 days to destroy  Lebanon and kill women and children .

Meeting on Monday with the Grand Mufti of the Republic Ahmad Bader Hassoun, Chairman of the Religion and Diplomatic Center in Washington Douglas Johnston and Secretary General of the center Brayan Douglas,   as well as members of the US delegation  said " What makes man sad is that the US Administration claims, it wants peace and actually it is not working to
 realize that ." 

Dr. Hassoun emphasized the unity of divine missions, assuring on the importance of building man, spreading love and peace in the world.

"Our Arab region is the cradle of divine religion and the base of Prophets who circulated light all over the world," Grand Mufti underlined.

Dr. Hassoun rejected calls to establish countries on religious, racial and ethnic base, because they contradict the building of human civilization and push for extremism under the name of religion.

He pointed out to the massacres committed by the Israeli aggression against the Palestinian people and its killings of elderly, women, and children backed by the US Administration which claims to secure the democracy and human rights in addition to what is going in Iraq .

For his part, Johnston called to exert more efforts to establish peace in the region, adding "as an American citizen, I admit that we committed a lot of mistakes in our foreign policy, but we feel happy because the American people expressed what they want in the latest mid-terms elections.
