Arab countries tell former optometrist to see writing on the wall - Yahoo! News

Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Aboul Gheit said Wednesday night after meeting with his Saudi counterpart, Prince Saud al-Faisal, that they had discussed how to "find a mechanism to implement" last year's U.N. Security Council resolution that called for all foreign forces to leave Lebanon. "Egypt is encouraging Syria to settle the situation surrounding Lebanon as soon possible," Aboul Gheit said.

Arab League Secretary-General Amr Moussa has said the Syrian withdrawal issue would not be on the ministers' agenda and that neither the Syrian nor the Lebanese foreign minister were attending.
