Arab conference on terrorism calls to differentiate terror from liberation struggle

Secretary General of the Arab Interior Ministers Council stressed, during the opening ceremony of 8th Arab Conference on Terrorism, the necessity of differentiating between terrorism and oppressed peoples' legal right of struggle to liberate their occupied lands and gain their self-determination right in accordance with the related international resolutions.

"Terrorism has neither religion nor homeland in spite of some terrorists' allegations of serving a special religion (Islam) while they absolutely are deforming the real image of it," Secretary General Mohammed Bin Ali Kouman said.

He also called for deep and serious cooperation among all countries to combat terrorism "either in security field or in others," stressing the importance of establishing strong international alliance against terrorism.

8th Arab Conference on Terrorism started activities in Arab Interior Ministers council with the participation of representatives of many Arab countries including Syria.

For his part chairman of the conference Ibrahim Hammmad called for moving toward an international agreement to fight electronic crimes under the umbrella of the United Nation.

He condemned every attempt to exploit the international campaign on terrorism in order to achieve special aims that contradict with the international law and the values of peace and justice.
