“While enjoying the favorable prospects of the recent agreement in Lebanon as well as in Syria, Christians and Muslims give free rein to their spirit of intrigue. It is mainly about the future of the Lebanese status, whose modalities are [...] discussed by the press of all parties. The elections and powers of the Consultative Assembly, where the personal interest of those who aspire to play a political role is perceived, are objects of continual criticism.”</text>

                <text>Note on the Emir Faisal and the Eastern Situation [1920]&#13;
Text of a telegram from Greater Lebanon’s committee to the Syrian Central Committee 1920&#13;
&#13;
"By an unspeakable act of violence, the Emir Faisal [...] has become the king of Syria, refusing any help or collaboration from France. Faced with the threat of a brutal regime, with its inevitable result of bloody unrest, the people of Beirut and all of Greater Lebanon expressively protested and refused to recognize the King of Syria. […] &#13;
Greater Lebanon maintains its full claims. It intends to remain independent, rejects this suzerainty, resists by arms, and appeals to France to defend its rights, which are now associated with its own, based on the secular pact and the sworn-on arrangement.”&#13;

“Mr. Moukarzel, President of the Lebanese in America, informed us that the American government did not yet receive official notification about Mount Lebanon now being a state independent from Syria and placed under the French mandate. &#13;
While the postal authorities accept only letters and parcels bearing the expression “Mount Lebanon-Syria," he asks for the intervention of the Embassy to let the federal post approve “Mount Lebanon" as an address. &#13;
May I proceed with this request?&#13;

The Emir Arslan introduced himself to the legation this morning, along with seven delegates from the Lebanese Alliance. He asked me, on behalf of the Lebanese residents in the Argentinian Republic, to telegraph Your Eminence to obtain official confirmation of the proclamation of the independence of Greater Lebanon, which took place on September 1 in Beirut. He also asked if the flag raised on this occasion could be adopted now as the Lebanese flag.&#13;
The delegates wish to convey (to the French Government) on this occasion, " a testimony of their eternal gratitude to France."&#13;

I would be grateful if you could confirm to the resident Lebanese of your country that the independence of Greater Lebanon under the French mandate was declared on September 1. The Beka[a], the regions of Sour and Saïda, as well as the cities of Beirut and Tripoli have been added as well. The flag adopted by the people is the tricolored flag carrying a cedar in the white stripe.&#13;

For Mr. Terrier. Press Notes&#13;
&#13;
During a three-day trip to Tripoli and Qannoubine, where I was received at the summer residence of the Maronite Patriarch, I could see unanimous acclamations, and general enthusiasm, in favor of Greater Lebanon and the recognition of the henceforth independent populations under the rule of France, the liberator. I declared to all that it was necessary, not only for the wealth of the country but to put an end to emigration and bring back the emigrants to Greater Lebanon, where France promises to bring security, prosperity, and justice for all.</text>

“The loyal and notable France has provided Lebanon with its fully legitimate borders. It has thus reassured the oppressed people, offering those liberal politics and freedom, as a sign of real protection against tyranny. Consequently, we Lebanese residents [of] Bahia Brazil salute, through your excellence, the Glorious France, to which we owe our independence.”&#13;
