Hizbullah Continues Mediation with Aoun as Jumblat Denies Portfolio Rotation 'Plot'
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربيةHizbullah failed again to convince its ally Free Patriotic Movement leader Michel Aoun to give up his demand for keeping the energy and telecommunications portfolios as part of his share in the new government.
Hizbullah MP Mohammed Raad visited President Michel Suleiman in Baabda Palace on Thursday. The adviser of the party's leader Hussein Khalil also visited Premier-designate Tammam Salam.
Hizbullah official Wafiq Safa also held talks with Progressive Socialist Party leader Walid Jumblat in Clemenceau.
Jumblat told As Safir daily that he held “positive” talks with Safa.
The discussions during these meetings focused on Aoun's request to be left out of a deal on the rotation of portfolios in the new cabinet or giving his party so-called “sovereign” and services ministries.
But well-informed sources told An Nahar that such conditions were difficult to meet.
The first request contradicts the agreement reached between the rival parties to form a 24-member cabinet based on the rotation of portfolios, they said.
As for the second condition set by Aoun, it is almost impossible to meet because the agreement lies in giving President Michel Suleiman the fourth “sovereign” portfolio.
Jumblat stressed in his remarks to As Safir that “the concept of rotation is very important and … we cannot give it up.”
“We have agreed from the beginning on the the rotation between sects. So there are no plots or hidden deals against anyone or at the expense of anyone.”
the biggest loser is....aoun.
now hizbushaitan are burning aoun more while they know they will cave in soon on the cabinet: they do not have much time to finalize this as per their orders.
ahhhh thats why they Aoun wants to keep it? so smart ft!
it's not because he dreamt of the oil and prepared the contract during the last 3 years. After all, Gebran is so much poorer than when he became a minister, right?
They can't do any worse than Bwesir and stop your cheerleading about improved electricity and intorrnet it's all B.S
LBC "not lbci" said it right in 1990 by calling him Geneghazel Aoun when he managed to flee away to the French embassy after leaving thousands of civilians and army fellows to die and be tortured by Syrian thugs and after promising them that he would die in Baabda! this guy is a born coward/loser ... I don't blame him I only blame the sick stupid people after him today disregarding what he did to the Christian specially!!!
(1). Ablah, once the capital of that Syrian region called Lebanon. One man there, first it was Ghazi Kanaan, then Rustom Ghazaleh, both treated our clowns with total disdain, this is just wanting to remain mild with my views. Our polticians when called to go to Ablah would jump like jack rabbits and go because the boss cannot be kept waiting. Then there was the road to the big capital of greater Syria, Damascus, where the emperor sat, once these little rats of ours went there, it meant, do as you're told, period. Now that the Syrian occupier left us, look at what our jesters are doing, we don't recognize the country we once called Lebanon, it's so broke that even a broken tap could not be repaired nowadays.
"Pity the nation whose statesman is a fox,
whose philosopher is a juggler,
and whose art is the art of patching and mimicking
Pity the nation that welcomes its new ruler with trumpeting,
and farewells him with hooting,
only to welcome another with trumpeting again. "
How many times did the martyr hariri, jumblatt, berri, Boutros Harb etc travel to Anjar? General Michael Sleiman on army day in 2001 praising our Syrian brothers!
But that was over 10 years ago.... Too long for Lebanese public memories
(2). Who do we call to put these sods to order, sadly the emperor is now fighting for his life! How long can we the people of Lebanon have to endure this circus, how long? Let's look at it squarely and frankly, it looks we will have NO solution but an amplification of all our problems, simple. It looks clear, that the word has been given, "keep delaying everything, keep dragging your feet, keep stalling, keep bringing up problems and conditions, the longer you can do it, the better". Anyone who refuses to understand this logic by now has accepted that he or she has lost Lebanon, maybe for good.
(3). The general of all bad news, the general of all epic fails. Masalan: he said, "I shall liberate every single meter of Lebanon from the Syrians, next thing he fights his own Christian siblings, result, later on, the Syrians came in and finally occupied ever inch of Lebanon. he said, " I have no doubt that it is the Syrians that killed Rafic Hariri", now he denies it and even courts Hariri's killers. He called Hezbollah as terrorists, now he is their formal rubber stamp. He said, "ther are no more Lebanese prisoners in Syria", then denied later when he became bedfellow with Bachar Al Assad. He said, "It will all be over by next Tuesday" the war in Syria has now entered its third year. He calls others as Zo3ran, yet the man has never made one speech without insulting his opponents. He calls himself as clean, yet now he has proven that with his dwarf son-in-law, money is the only thing he can smell.
(4). He says he has no interest in the Baabda seat, yet he is killing to get to it, even if he had one hour left to his life. He said he was M14, its mother, its father its everything, now it is his worst nightmare, going as far as ridiculing it when its members get assassinated by his friends. When Pierre Gemayel died, does anyone remember what he was caught saying this old man?! Shall I go one? Ma3leysh ya General, Allay 5allik, 23od a3waj, bass 7keh jeless, fala2tna. Ma akzab minnak il'la li m7owtinak wou seindinak.
Akid Paul akid, but it will shock you about what else they're running after, that's how low they've become.
He has done the best job anybody else before him has. So has the telecom minister. You peeps best stop your partisan hate and admit it.
Just send this coward a couple million and he will agree.
the only negotiating is on $$$ not on serving the people
They pick and choose these posts like it's a lottery game or as if it's a game. Shame on that kind of process.
