Lebanese Response
The Lebanese government officially responded to the resolution on the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) website in three ways:
- The withdrawal of the foreign forces from Lebanon;
- Disarming the Lebanese and foreign guerillas; and
- Expanding the government's authority on all the Lebanese territories.
Hezbollah and the Loyalty to the Resistance bloc denounced a report on the resolution in 2010 as meddling in Lebanese affairs.

Famous quotes containing the word response:
“The truth is that literature, particularly fiction, is not the pure medium we sometimes assume it to be. Response to it is affected by things other than its own intrinsic quality; by a curiosity or lack of it about the people it deals with, their outlook, their way of life.”
—Vance Palmer (18851959)
