الفيصل "يرفض أي فرصة رئاسية لعون"
Read this story in English
جدد وزير الخارجية سعود الفيصل رفضه "إعطاء أي فرصة رئاسية" لرئيس "التيار الوطني الحر" النائب ميشال عون، الذي بدوره أعلن انه "لن يتعب في الانتظار".
فقد نقلت صحيفة "السفير"، الثلاثاء، عن مصادر لبنانية قولها ان الملك السعودي سلمان بن عبد العزيز التقى رئيس "تيار المستقبل" سعد الحريري في الرياض بحضور الفيصل.
ولفتت المصادر الى ان الحريري حذر خلال اللقاء من الآثار السلبية للإستمرار الفراغ الرئاسي وأثره على الاستقرار اللبناني، الامر الذي تفهّمته القيادة السعودية.
الى ذلك، كشفت المصادر عن ان الحريري أشار الى عون، خلال اللقاء، "بصفته زعيماً مارونياً يمثل حيثية في الشارع المسيحي، وأنه الممر الالزامي للاستحقاق الرئاسي".
الا انها لفتت الى ان الفيصل "بقي على موقفه الحاد برفض اعطاء أية فرصة رئاسية لعون، آخذاً عليه أنه بمواقفه يغطي جرائم حزب الله وايران ضد الشعب السوري".
من هنا، أفادت مصادر "السفير"، الى ان عون تبلّغ من أصدقاء مقربين له "الأجواء التي أحاطت باللقاء، وهو فاجأهم بالقول انه لن يتعب من الانتظار".
وأضاف عون قائلاً ان "سعود الفيصل يراهن على تمرير مرشحين معينين لن يكتب لهم النجاح هذه المرة".
يُشار الى ان السعودية تدعم فريق 14 آذار، في حين ان عون الذي يتنمي الى فريق 8 آذار يميل الى النظام السوري وايران.
يُذكر ان عون كان قد التقى الحريري في بيت الوسط في منتصف شباط الفائت، في أول لقاء "علني" بين الرجلين منذ خمسة أعوام على الأقل، حيث جرى عرض لمجمل الأوضاع السياسية في البلاد وآخر المستجدات الإقليمية.
الا ان التواصل غير المعلن عاد بين الزعيمين منذ عام حين التقى الحريري بعون في روما بعيدا عن الأضواء في إطار حوار بينهما لبحث إمكانية وصول الأخير إلى سدة الرئاسة، لكن هذه المساعي فشلت.
وفي حين ان عون هو مرشح 8 آذار في المعركة الرئاسية، يخوض رئيس "حزب القوات اللبنانية" سمير جعجع هذا الاستحقاق عن فريق 14 آذار ويدعم رئيس "الحزب التقدمي الاشتراكي" النائب وليد جنبلاط، مرشح "اللقاء الديمقراطي" النائب هنري حلو.

Another credible report by Al Safil and mowaten of Iran. The meeting allegedly was between Hariri, Al Faisal and the Saudi King. So, it had to be one of those 3 that revealed to Al Safil and corroborated by mowaten of Iran.

Yea, place your bets on him and his grand mufti:

The Grand Mufti of Saudi Arabia has said it is “necessary to destroy all the churches of the region,” following Kuwait’s moves to ban their construction.
And you want to let them tell us who should be president in Lebanon?

It is all about the golden gaz under our shores evbody wants to own it not even sharing, i wish one day we earn truly our freedom, no body admires 'freedom' if had never experienced it.

They have no choice. It's our turn now. Gen. Aoun will be President.

As a Shiite you must be very pleased that the Caporal is a dog to Ebola.
As a Christian, this is unacceptable to me.
I do not think that you can understand this very simple statement.

No one can deny that the Caporal is the dog of Ebola. Ba3ed Na2is...

Coming from a supporter of Ebola, I can imagine why you say what you say.
Ask yourself why Ebola is so bad for Lebanon.

anyway, it is very clear now that the saudis want to drop hariri in favour of saniora no doubt about that. Reason why they are humiliating hariri in the press. Thanks God the saudis won't have time to succeed. Moreover saniora is baseless everybody in Lebanon knows it (:

Excuse me Prince Faisal all due respect to you but who are you to tell anybody in lebanon who their president can be thank you for your financial support but please stay out of lebanese affairs

This article is not news, its merely confirming what everyone already knew.
I said it years ago that Aoun will never be Pres because he simply wouldn't agree to any conditions put forward from abroad..KSA wanted a guarantee that the "taef" will remain as is.
The General said I don't do deals with outsiders.
The General could become Pres with a snap of his fingers & M14 knows that
God bless men who refuse to be bought & sold by outsiders.
God bless the General of Generals.
May m14 remain slaves of the foreign dollar!

By the way I don't think Michel Aoun would make a good president I think he is too divisive we need a president that brings all the lebanese together regardless of sect .

You're entitled to your opinion, so how about you allow Lebanese to have an opinion & vote directly?
It would solve many things.
1. Pres elected on time every time.
2. No outside influence.
3. Your opinion as well as others will actually count.
what say you?
12:23 ,2015 آذار 24

That would be ideal but these days the president has to walk the fine line what would you think about an outsider ( lebanese ) of course being a president.

If a Pres is chosen by his people, then & only then will that nation move forward.
Look at Venezuela when the people chose their leader, that country went boom...The poor enjoyed privileges never seen in that nation.
All those before him were puppet leaders.
Lebanon must allow people voting directly & then you will see Lebanon move as one.
This waiting for KSA - Iran - Syria - U.S -France etc is the biggest slap in the face for all Lebanese & the Pres will forever be nothing but a puppet.
A leader chosen by the people won;t have to walk any lines but his & his nations line.
stop making excuse M14ers....people vote or buzz off.

@samy:
are you referring to mowaten, flamethrower, southern, the_roar or all of them? please, clarify. Oh and one more thing samy: is that all you want to describe them as? I encourage you to be more detailed and explicit.

Really FT Aoun is the best candidate? Why ? please explain you think he is . As I understand he left lebanon during turmoil and only returned when it was peaceful and please explain how did he contribute to lebanon returning to peaceful times I can not understand your undying support for him is it only because he supports the resistance ( I having nothing against the resistance as long as it is only against Israel ) I am sure there are better qualified people available to be president .

But after this he worked for years to obtain a US condemnation of the Syrian occupation (he is the one behind the Syria accountability act) while his supporters here in Lebanon protested, and got arrested and beaten for it. He represents the true Lebanese sovereignty, not the one that worked for Syria, helped them take control of Lebanon, helped them plunder Lebanon for decades and then turned again when Syria was out...

@libonase: Aoun left when other Lebanese parties (including Geagea) turned on him and joined forces with Syria to oust him. Syria got the okay from France who decided to withdraw their support to Aoun. When he saw the attack coming, supported by Lebanese forces artillery he went to the French embassy to demand that they oppose the Syrian invasion. They refused and instead evacuated him. Seeing all hope was lost, pinned between the Syrian army and local enemies he asked his men to stand down, some did, but some refused and fought to the end. Maybe this was a wrong move, and maybe he didnt have any other choice, but who knows what would have happened if he hadn't left. At least the war finally ended after this.

M14 are a bunch of Saudi Oil dollar lovers. Which does not make them Lebanese, just sellouts.
Yet you try and take pride from phoenician culture, while eating off oily gulf hands. Nothing honorable about M14, they are the shame of Lebanon.

My prediction now is that there will not be any president in Lebanon until Michel Aouns death.

Don't care who becomes president, as long he doesn't have Lebanese blood on his hands.

I dont think GMA would be a good president. GMA is a good opposition leader.
However why is it Faisal's business anyway?

And Tehran rebuffs Geagea's Candidacy.
And the Lebanese people? Who are they? Dare they elect their president through their last duly elected members of Parliament as is their right in their constitution? No, of course not. Not when the political class have sold themselves to the regional powers, Iran and Saudi Arabia who are in the middle of a regional conflict. Neither can cede ground to the other and so the holders of Lebanese sovereignty, Iran and Saudi Arabia, theirs because they bought it and theirs because the Lebanese political class sold it to them, they have the last word.

Yes, FT, Geagea got 48 votes, and would have gotten more but for Tehran and it's orders. Aoun, by the way, got none. The rebuff was not from the public but from Parliament. The public does not vote for the Lebanese President. Why not have a popular vote? The Lebanese constitution does not so provide. The President must be elected by the Constitution. So amend it? That requires a law and Parliament cannot legislate in the absence of a President. It was done before? Yes, under the viceroy ship of Rushtom Gazeli, but thase days are gone, aren't they? Why no president, Iranian ordered boycotts by FPM and HA. End of story

the dirty desert rat makes me want to become an aounist, obviously aoun must be good if the head cutting, heroin addicted, polygamist saudis are against him.
