  • La rue Spears est une rue de Beyrouth qui doit son nom au général britannique Edward Spears qui faisait la liaison en 1941 avec le général de Gaulle et son mouvement des Français libres pour la libération du Levant. Le général Spears sera plus tard partisan d'une indépendance le plus tôt possible du Liban et de la Syrie par rapport au mandat français, épousant en cela les thèses des nationalistes arabes. C'est grâce au général Spears que le Royaume-Uni reconnaît l'indépendance de facto du Liban en 1942. (fr)
