Aoun Accuses Officials of Inciting Security Unrest: We Will No Longer Respond to Jumblat’s Insults
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Free Patriotic Movement leader MP Michel Aoun stressed on Tuesday the need for the security forces to intervene to contain the recent unrest in Lebanon.
He accused after the Change and Reform bloc’s weekly meeting “officials of being complicit in the unrest.”
“They are inciting the people to burn tires as the security forces stand idly by,” he added.
“The security authorities must intervene without being asked to perform their duties. The decision to preserve the peace does not require a ministerial decree,” declared Aoun.
Addressing Progressive Socialist Party leader MP Walid Jumblat’s recent criticism against him and Energy Minister Jebran Bassil, the MP responded: “I will no longer reply to his insults.”
Jumblat had held Bassil and the FPM directly responsible for the electricity crisis in Lebanon.
He told As Safir newspaper in remarks published on June 21: “The FPM does not want to benefit from Arab funds and it does not want to grant the private sector a role in tackling this problem.”
“Enough with excuses, let the brother-in-law of the FPM (Energy Minister Bassil) assume his responsibilities,” declared Jumblat.
Aoun also slammed National Struggle Front MP Akram Shehayeb’s recent remarks to Asharq al-Awsat newspaper on June 22 in which he also accused Bassil and the FPM chief of obstructing an energy plan to end Lebanon’s crisis.
Aoun said: “Jumblat along with the president and prime minister want to obstruct my plans in government.”
Shehayeb had told the pan-Arab daily: “How can Aoun and his brother-in law escape their responsibilities in the electricity file?”
“Haven’t they controlled the Energy Ministry since 2009 and year after year, they threaten to plunge the Lebanese deeper into darkness?” he wondered.
He noted that the national unity government under former PM Saad Hariri had approved an energy plan, but it was obstructed by Bassil, who rejected the offers of Arab funds that were seeking to help Lebanon.

It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at best knows achievement and who at the worst if he fails at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

At least quote the source of this comment ya Sophia!!! or you like your master Claoun are now used to claim all good things to yourself and blame others for failures.
Theodore Roosevelt just turned in his grave when he knew you are using his quote to describe Claoun.

so what aoun is telling us that he is the only one allowed to insult others. i mean this guy is the inacarnation of stupidity and evil mixed together. It baffles me how some people even fllow this guy. He keeps drumming up the civil war era as if he has nothing to do with it. he keeps up telling people that he is a saint but yet stole millions beofre he escaped to france. they had the ministry of energy or no energy however u see it since 2009 and things are far worst now then ever beofre. Yet he blames it on someone else. can someone take him to deir el saleeb -- i will pay for his 1st week there lol

Always, always blaming someone else. But for Aoun and his stupidity and that of his blind followers, Hezbollah would have no cover and could not have or exercise the power that it has that is causing these problems.

Funny Hajj Micho said nothing about the pro hezb thugs attack on al-jadeed or the blocked roads to delay the arrival of the Lebanese army, I guess he still can't bring himself to criticize anything they do. The little soldier understands his place, he's not privy to his boss's plans he just accepts them as they are no questions asked. Unlike previous terrorist masked men eruptions one of the assailant was caught this time.

1- Bassil is his son-in-law (low to be exact) not brother in law Naharnet ... work on your translations!
2- Aoun is an idiot and his son in law is a theif; I am sure that Aoun has his head very high up in the sky (As he thinks he is a God) and not aware of what his this 7arame is doing
We should stop giving them importance perhaps that would silence them.
