عون: لا أقبل بغير الأورثذكسي ولا أعلم ماذا حصل في روما ولم يعرض علي شيء

First

Like all Lebanese politicians...Mr Aoun you say what suits you and ignore what doesn't. I was a kid when you used to address the Lebanese as "Ya sha3ba lobnan el 3zeem" and although I was suffering from your army shelling my building (34 direct hits btw) I respected you for what you represent...today you should address your follower as: ya sha3ba lobnan el kharoof...suits them better!

Never heard or seen anyone more sectarian than this man! Christian this and Christian that,,,,uffffffffff!

Oh what an idiot.... so, by the same token, let the Sunnis elect the prime minister, the shias the speaker, and the christians the president???? Is that the lebanon that he wants????

Aoun: The Orthodox Gathering law is constitutional as is the one based on a single electoral district. One MP claimed that the Orthodox law is sectarian, while neglecting to mention that the distribution of power among the president, premier, and speaker in Lebanon is based on sects.

Yep ... the powers that be want to keep out the reformers to keep their fiefdoms safe for patronage at the expense of Lebanon. Suleiman, Miqati and Berri are all angling to keep the corrupt status quo that keeps their money rolling in ... Only Aoun will reform Lebanon

liar liar pants on fire (that's how they came up with the orange color)

"An error would be committed if the state did not distribute seats according to sects. How can a Christian MP represent his sect if he is not elected by Christian voters?"

This is the problem. This sentence disgusts me. I am shameful that I even used to defend this man. I never thought he would turn out this sectarian.

A Christian MP should represent all of Lebanon, not just his sect. This is disgusting rhetoric and is divisive and dangerous.

how old is he, were there any lunatics before he was born or it all stated with him

The Taef agreement should be dumped in the trash as it is not an accord.

he's right as Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah said in 1989 "The problem with the Taif is that it enshrines the Maronite sectarian system .. The alternative to the Taif accord is the resistance."

rejection of the taef accord.
this is the main thing they are after.neither hizbushaitan nor aoun want taef, although aoun is basing his electoral law on the taef accord.
what they want is divide power into 3 between Christians, Shia and sunnis. this has always been the hidden agenda of hizbushaitan. and aoun is the one getting them there.
aoun was and still is the worst thing that happened to Lebanon.
we are definitely heading towards civil war guys. better prepare well for this one.

the christian ayatollah baddou houkouk el massihiye,so monseigneur rahi is batrak el massihiye or what?

Taef enshrines the stop counting half and half Mounasafa, does Aoun really want us to believe that the Christians at 35% will get a better deal. After all Nasrallah does not deny that HA's wish is to establish an Islamic Republic, because "establishing an Islamic government is the only way to bring stability to a society and is the only way to settle social differences, even in a society that is composed of numerous minorities". Also remember that Hezballah supports the Orthodox law only because it's based on a single electoral district and proportional representation not because it give the Christians fair representation. When the same law where the Christian voters elect all their 64 MPs but under majority vote was suggested by Sami Gemayel Hezballah opposed it.

Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on, or by imbeciles who really mean it.

How about your God who left the shouf people fending for themselves after getting them in trouble with the druze and sunnis of that area. He is the last one to speak for the christians too.

Dr Geagea is the man, not only for christians but for all of Lebanon

Abbas Ibrahim living proof of how Aoun defends Christian's rights

roar, that's sooo funny..LMAO..really ??? a better quote is "For Those About to Rock We Salute You" ya general.... lol

this clown is not even worth commenting, he is a waste of time....

guess what Aoun--you are becoming more and more marginalized now. Choose your words carefully next time.

Go aoun, accept nothing less than the orthodox law, hope you stick to your commitment ..

Yesterday the Pro Syrians were worshiping the Taef accord, now it's a terrible deal. Where does it say in the Lebanese laws or constitution that every religion elects its own MPs? Claiming that this is usurping the rights of Christians a fantasy because such a law doesn't exist.

We shall wait and see which one would break on their words ( ie LF or Kataeb) then we will know in who's bed their in. Orthodox law or nothing !!!

all sects should get fair representation without infringing on the rights of others, better yet, get rid of the sect aspect and let the best candidates be selected regardless of religion. Religion and politics has NEVER been good in history, but have been used by religious authorities get their way.

and just an FYI, Aoun opens his mouth and invites criticism--or to use another quote--"tis better to be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt". He perhaps should be a bit more measured in his responses instead of talking without thinking.

Who cares about what an old sick man has to say! That's why he isn't kept in the loop, his opinion doesn't matter!

why should Aoun have any say in the law?...he's just an MP

I was not consulted...who cares? who are you?

@the_roar
Not sure how old you were during our civil war and how well you recollect the events. Simply put we, the Christians, precipitated the civil war because the Christian leaders then refused to yield some power to our fellow Moslems - which at the time were lead by the Sunnis.
The war ensued and with Syria backing the our Moslem compatriots we Christians started to loose one battle after the other. It was when we on were on the verge of loosing the war that our political, and most wise spiritual leadership under Patriarch Sfeir, that we acceded to Taef. Aoun yelled and screamed but was utterly unable to change the coarse of events. That be the history my friend don't stick your neck in the sand.

Prison what prison ? He was in holiday home, he should be in prison with Charles Manson, that's a prison for you. How many Christians did this maniac slaughter ? What the Churches he blew up whilst people were praying and taking shelter?

Lady Sammy GAGA &Co.. Were shelling the lebanese Army in east Beirut at the same time as the Syrians were doing the same thing, what do call that? Who is the real traitor here? This psychopath gave the green card to the Syrians to enter east Beirut , only because he was bent on killing Aoun and no matter how many lebanese soldiers died during the process. What low life scum.

Aoun was not consulted in Rome because Aoun is not a principal to the political issues in Lebanon, he is a mere agent for an agent for a real player. This is the core of the Aoun delusion. He always acts as though he is a principal, when in reality, which he seeks to avoid, he is only an agent for others. To discover the Aoun Principal, one only needs to follow the money. It passes to Aoun first from Hezbollah and it comes to Hezbollah from Iran or Hezbollah's various criminal enterprises. All of Lebanon knows this reality, only Aoun is fooling himself and his foolish followers.

To say that Aoun supports the Orthodox Plan because it is the ONLY avenue for restoring Christian political power is to buy into the Aoun delusion. This is not the case at all. It is the Hezbollah/Iranian agenda that Aoun is promoting, though he denies this as does his followers.

By Proportial Representation proposed in the Orthodox Plan, Hezbollah will have purchased the Shiite Vote and will control the Deputies from the Shiite Districts. The whole promise of Aoun to the Hezbollah as sold to them by Assad is that he can deliver the Christian Deputies to Hezbollah based on a fear and loathing of the Sunni. To date and through two elections, Aoun has proven to not be up to the task. He loses to his Christian competitors in the Kataeb and the LF in contested Christian districts. The only way Aoun can deliver and keep himself relevant to Hezbollah and thus to his source of money is to win though he loses. Proportional voting will allow this to Aoun. So that if he gets 40% of the vote and loses, he will still get an allocation of seats in Parliament and by this means deliver on his bargain to bring the Christian deputies into the service of Hezbollah and Iranian interests in Lebanon and marginalize the Sunni and Druze.

Aoun is not leading his sheep to freedom for the Christians of Lebanon nor to independence for Lebanon. He is delusional enough to believe that this is his purpose and he says so. However, the rest of Lebanon can see through the delusion, Mikati, Sulieman and all the rest can see that Aoun is taking the Christians and with them all of Lebanon into an Iranian tutelage for Lebanon. Does he really believe that Iran will allow him to ever become President? Does he really believe that Iran will ever let their money be used through the vehicle of the FPM to pursue any agenda other than Iranian hegemony over Lebanon through the empowerment of Hezbollah and maintaining its grip on the Lebanese government? Yes, Aoun believes that he can. And this is where he departs from reality and his mental illness serves him well. However, no one else should in good conscious listen to this man. He should be put away where he can receive proper care.
