Bassil Says Amendments Appeal Shouldn’t Affect Elections

W460

Free Patriotic Movement head Jebran Bassil said Tuesday that his bloc insists on holding the elections on time.

Bassil said after the Strong Lebanon bloc’s weekly meeting that the bloc will file an appeal “against the amendments” and not against the entire electoral law.

“There is no problem with the deadlines,” Bassil said, asking the Lebanese parties to stop “the blame game, every time a party wants to exercise its right.”

Bassil added that the appeal “will not affect the administrative procedures for the elections’ preparations.”

"Jebran Bassil said Tuesday that his bloc insists on holding the elections on time."

I believe I read that he did not want the elections held in March 2022 because of Bad Weather. Now, this pos is backtracking!

"He also decried that setting March 27 as a date for the elections is “manipulation” amid expected bad weather and the Christian fasting season."

Didn't Bassil's hand picked Foreign Minister Abdallah Bou Habib, in a letter sent to Interior Minister Bassam Mawlawi, warn of an inability to hold elections abroad with the current legal deadlines?

Thus spoke Zarathustra... Nothing change the obvious fact that Bassil is a Useful Idiot with assigned role to attack Christians, Sunnis, and anyone believing in free and democratic Lebanon. A HisbIran dog in leach. A shameless political prostitute and a premeditated assassin of our independence. He and his deranged uncle sold Lebanon to the Basij for 30 pieces of silver for personal benefit. This Don Quixote will soon be facing reality of his evilness and crime. He can run but will not escape justice.
