U.N. Security Council Denies Receiving Lebanese Complaint on Syria Violations
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Reports that Lebanon has filed a complaint to the U.N. Security Council against the Syrian violations were foiled Saturday when sources of the British mission at the council assured otherwise, As Safir daily said.
Britain, which currently holds the rotating presidency of the Security Council has not received so far any formal complaint from Lebanon against the violations. The information was also confirmed by sources of the Lebanese delegation at the U.N., added As Safir.
Lebanon will send a complaint that does not include any measures to be taken to the Security Council over the assaults carried out by Syrian regime troops and the rebel Free Syrian Army, informed sources told the daily.
They added that Lebanon will not file a compliant against the Syrian opposition so as not to constitute a recognition of the body.
Government sources said earlier that Lebanese authorities have sent a memo to the Security Council on Syrian violations and “filed a complaint” with the Arab League over the assaults.
However, they added that caretaker Foreign Minister Adnan Mansour is still mulling the request of President Michel Suleiman to file the complaint.

"However, they added that caretaker Foreign Minister Adnan Mansour is still mulling the request of President Michel Suleiman to file the complaint."... mulling the request?
Mansour jumps to it when Ali gives him a complaint, that boy is a complete sell out.

Mansour, the filth, hasn't been doing his job. I suggest the presidency takes over his FM mission.

So are you actually saying that the Foreign Minister Adnan Mansour lied to the Lebanese government and public when he claimed that a complaint had been lodged with the Security Council.
In any other country an FM telling such a lie would have to resign immediately upon being found out, but unfortunately in Lebanon the opposite is what happens and he'll probably get a commendation fro keeping it an internal Lebanese affair.

foreign minister adnan mansour is still MULLING the request of president michel suleiman to file the complaint.
mull: to work (over) mentally; to cogitate; to ruminate.
i dont think he is allowed to do the mulling, the yellow flaggers are the ones doing the mulling for him.
