In 7 August 2001 (Arabic: ٧ آب ٢٠٠١) an Anti-Syrian occupation demonstration[1] took place in Lebanon, which turned violent when the joint Lebanese-Syrian security System tried to repress the revolt, and resulted in the arrest of hundreds without legal justification[2], during the tenure of the pro-Syrian president Emile Lahoud[3]. On that day, the security forces attacked hundreds of young activists, mainly from the Chrsitian[4] parties, including the Free Patriotic Movement, the Lebanese Forces[4], the National Liberal Party and other non-partisan neutral activists[5] in front of the Justice Palace in Beirut[4] and engaged in a campaign of beatings[4] and arrests that was characterized by extreme ferocity[5].
