عون: هناك أطراف داخلية تحرك الأحداث الامنية في لبنان لزرع الفوضى
Read this story in English
رأى رئيس تكتل التغيير والإصلاح النائب ميشال عون أن الأحداث الأمينة التي تحصل في لبنان "ليست صدفة" ، مشيرا الى أن هناك أطراف داخلية مشاركة فيها من أجل زرع الفوضى، معتبرا في الوقت عينه أن "إغلاق الطرقات بسبب قطع الكهرباء لا ينفع".
وقال عون في كلمة له بعد إجتماع التكتل الأسبوعي عصر الثلثاء: "هذه الاحداث الامنية التي حصلت لا نعتبر انها صدفة بل هناك من يحركها لزرع الفوضى في لبنان، وهي ليست وليدة الخارج فقط بل هناك مشاركة داخلية فيها، وننبه اللبنانيين ليكونوا واعين".
وأكد عون أن "اغلاق الطرقات لا ينفع بالنسبة لقطع الكهرباء"، لافتا الى أن "من يحرض الناس على قطع االطرقات هم من قطعوا المال عن مؤسسة كهرباء لبنان للقيام بمشاريع".
وأضاف: " اذا أرادوا القيام بمظاهرات أنا مستعد لاقول لهم من أوقف المشاريع، نحن واجبنا انتهى عندما أعدت وزارة الطاقة المشاريع عام 2010 وانهت الخطة ، وباتت الحكومة مجتمعة هي المسؤولة عن تأمين وتخصيص الاموال من أجل تنفيذ المشاريع".
وأوضح "قدمت قانونا معجلا لاقرار اعتمادات مشروع 700 ميغاوات وبقوا 170 يوما يناقشوه وصدر مشوها، مع العلم أن كل دقيقة تأخير تكلفنا 12 الف دولار، السنة كان الفرق في الخسارة بمؤسسة كهرباء لبنان 1750 مليار دولار، نحن كل المشروع الذي كنا نقوم به بـ700 ميغاوات يكلف مليار و200 مليون".
ولفت عون الى أن "الخسارة السنوية 6 مليار دولار بسبب الكهرباء ونقص الطاقة"، متوجها الى المواطنين بالقول " يا مواطنين انا مستعد للسير امامكم اذا كنتم تريدون التوجه الى مقر المسؤول عن وضع الكهرباء، كل الذين مروا هم مسؤولون عن وضع الكهرباء".
و عن العمال المياومين، ذكر عون أن "أكبر عمل انساني قام به وزير الطاقة جبران باسيل لينصف أشخاصا ليس عمالا بشركة الكهرباء بتقديمه المشروع الذي حضره"، مردفا: "من هم دون ضمير هو الذين حرضوا على وزير الطاقة ولكن نحن "يا جبل لا يهزك ريح"،
وخلص العون الى القول "نحن باقون أما البقية فيذهبون، صامدون بأماكننا ووزارتنا ومستعدون للمواجهة".

Is there really some people left to listen to that clown? Did he really say "We will remain in our positions in cabinet and we will not allow anyone to confront us"? Aoun, champion of the democracy. The real problem is the incapacity of your group to govern, idiot! Some political groups are meant to stay in the opposition where they can be watchdogs. you're not even good at that - to bitter not to be able to put "General President" on your business card. Enough!!!!!

After the incidents in Tripoli, which did not succeed so far, hizbushaitan and their masters have started the nahr el baed issue, and all that to show the army is not capable of handling matters, ahead of the discussions about hizbushaitan weapons.

just common sense, plus if you take into account the leaked assassination attempts, you get the following:
reduce the number of MPs of M14, so that they can pass an electoral law easily, so they can guarantee legal supremacy for seveal years.
this supremacy, if they get it, will change the face of lebanon

Michael Aoun is speaking correctly. He hasn't actually said anything wrong here, and so therefore you cant criticize him for speaking the truth in this instance.

Maybe if the man checked his rhetoric and his temper people would be more willing to listen to the substance of what he is trying to say. But as long as he acts like a castrated Napoleon, he will have a very hard time reaching out to his political opponents. You can't alienate people and expect them to be constructive with you.

Lets say he made the comments with a calm temper and no rhetoric - which in this article it seems like he did, then what is the problem?

Well in this case the debate would be a lot more fruitful, wouldn't it. I raised no issues concerning what Aoun said today. On the whole, though, I think he is dead wrong on many key, existential issues. But you know what, there is nothing wrong with this. We need diverging opinions and we need heated yet civilized debate. This is what makes this tiny country a giant compared to all other arab countries, for all its failings and all its madness.

Jabal10452 please forgive me but really we have to get over this superiority complex that we are better than our Arab surrounding. Lebanon is worse than all other countries. Nothing works, nobody's right are respected, the state practically doesn't exist and we are continuously killing each other. And now that many of the Arabs have succeeded in their revolutions that leaves us with nothing to brag about. Really we need some modesty and humility before we start building this country!

All politicians in lebanon ar liars. I respect none of them. But why do people always the same technique to avoid admitting when they are wrong: "but he's doing it too" . Just admit that you leader is wrong. He is not god!

Ever since Aoun betrayed the philosophy and political positions he espoused before and during his Paris "manfa", he spouts nothing but idiotic lies. There is not any truth to what he says now or can there be any. Man nakara aslahou la asla lahou, period.

I am also neutral most of the time because i come from the foundations of the entity of the lebanese state, and we gave up on it a while ago when Bachir was killed, but who is the alternate to Aoun who posseses a majority christian vote? Geagea? > alot of people think he is a killer or just dont like his personality... Gemayel? > lots of people think he is too weak...

cedar, you agreed with OK when I said there's no bigger liar, so your earlier claim that he was "speaking correctly" was not accurate was it. They all lie, but no one else claims to be purer than purest pure and cleaner than cleanest clean. You seem to be killing yourself trying to defend him and the best you could do is they all do it.

i agree that he is a bastard for leaving the army and the country behind and running away to france, but many people say that the other christian leaders have sold lebanon to the saudis and the sunnies... what alternative is there other then to support aouns christian beneficial measures...

Ya Cedar. If the alternative is a dictator, a liar and a hypocrite, you don't just follow him because there is no one else. You follow other moderate leaders who make sense. You follow the president and the state. Do Anything but this Aoun. He's the worst. You mentioned that you liked Bashir. The person that fought the Syrians till death. Then how can you align with Aoun when he's siding with the Syrians and defending a ruthless regime? Wake up people.

Aoun has a lot of negative points. I understand why one would not like him. But he is being fair here. He tried to do a good job for electricity with his efforts of last year but there are forces out there, very strong intelligent forces which are doing all they can to screw and discredit him. He is too blunt to sweet talk them, too weak to attack them since he doesnt have weapons, so he is ending up looking like the failure.

FT, first of all, Hizb was never a true ally, and as you know in politics when you deal with people it doesn't mean they are your allies...they are armed to the teeth and the one is forced to deal with them, look what happened when Rafik Hariri stood up to Syrian/Hizb cartel...he and many Lebanese were killed and remember that Aoun has a signed document/treaty of protection/understanding between with the same cartel, need to say more? ;)

seems only language that country understands is that of violence!!! so too high electricity bill block the roads? The ARMY must post a warning: as of that day, that hour etc.. any road blocks will be met opened VIOLENTLY. In other words, you block roads illegally you may be shot and killed!!

cedar, Aoun fought the Syrians but now he did not only make peace with them but many Lebanese feel that he's also a tool for them. Aoun, allied himself with the armed militia of hizballa that many of us feel that's presently the single greatest threat to the existence of the Lebanese state. Christians/Sunni (Presidents and PMs)and some Shia (Kamel Assaad), Lebanon prospered...the point is no one is a saint but many of us feel that Aoun sold out the country out right.

Lebanon should declare war on the filthy Shiites blocking the roads and burning tires and the local Iranian lackeys/subordinates Sectarian Islamic militia in Lebanon covering for them and on the corrupt Berri Shiite mafia cutting electricity. Only then can Lebanon have long-lasting peace. Oh and keep the coward Michel Aoun around he's amusing.

So to summarize, Aoun will take credit for any improvements in the electricity but blames everyone else for the problems. Anyhow, maybe the protesters should find out where he and his SIL live and block their roads--maybe that would be more effective.

Accomplishing any change for the good in the country is very very difficult. It is soo easy to be in the opposition and critisize and make a sit in in solidere. Aound did not know it is so difficult to rule. Hezbollah and Aoun's tenure as leaders of Lebanon for the past 18 months HUMBLED them. They TRIED with all their forces and goodwill to do something right. But they couldn't because of many reasons. Whatever they claim, they know they failed utterly. They know they cant run the country alone. And this is good news, because they will end up doing a coalition gvt in 2013 with less pretense and more wisdom, we need them. But not to rule us exclusively. We need them to have a bit more humility so to be able to work as part of a team.

I, as well as many others, believe that to be the case. Not so sure that they believe it themselves. HA still acts as arrogant as ever and so does Aoun and his side kick Basil. To believe that they really believe they failed one must see some self criticism and mea culpa coming from them. None are in evidence so far, quite the contrary. Just today Aoun was on his soap box blaming everyone on the face of this earth except his party and HA. Yesterday during the "hiwar"' Ra'ad was threatening that the next interfactional war will be a picnic compared to the previous one. Maybe I am hard headed but I need proof where I still see none. One can hope though.

$6 Billion annual deficit from Energy sector according to Aoun. So why does FT continue to blame M14 for the deficit?
Answer...... read the report from the ICC regarding the investigation of the murder of Rafik Hariri. They have recorded conversations from Syrian operatives (Ghazi Kanaan and Rustom Ghazali) giving instructions to their underlings to spread propaganda blaming Hariri for the deficit to destroy his reputation. This was their attempt to assassinate his character after his murder.
$6 Billion per year, and it didn't start this year. Add it up. What's your response to this FT? Still want to blame M14 for the deficit?

Amazing! I swear!
I've been reading this site for some months now, obviously not for the cutting edge journalism (which is non-existent) but because I like to read the comments.
And as far as I am concerned, FT is the voice of sanity on this site. I'm sorry, I know all of you may disagree with me, but that's just because your opinions are deeply rooted in hatred for him, nothing more.
Let's put aside his biased opinions for a minute (and he has EVERY right to be biased as the rest of you do), and you will notice he is the one with all the facts (the real facts not the twisted ones that you've all been spoon-fed by your media).
That's it. That's all I wanted to say. And I'm going to give him thumbs up where you are all too chicken to do so!
