عون متمسك برفض التمديد لقهوجي: بدأت بتحضير الطعن بالقانون
Read this story in Englishشدد رئيس "تكتل التغيير والاصلاح" النائب ميشال عون على رفضه التمديد لقائد الجيش العماد جان قهوجي، معلناً أنه سيطعن بالتمديد في حال أقر، التزاماً منه بالحفاظ على الدستور من الاخطاء التي ترتكب بحقه.
وفي حديث الى صحيفة "الاخبار"، الخميس، انتقد عون، رئيس "تيار المستقبل" سعد الحريري، بأنه طرح مسألة التمديد لقهوجي، بعد انتصار الجيش في معركة عبرا في صيدا على جماعة امام مسجد بلال بن رباح الشيخ احمد الاسير، "حتى يستفيد من همروجة الناس حول الجيش لتمرير التمديد وهو عمل غير قانوني".
وتابع، قائلاً "هناك قوانين يجب احترامها"، مجدداً التزامه بموقفه الطعن بالتمديد لقهوجي في حال اقراره، مشيراً الى أنه بدأ التحضير للطعن، متسائلاً "ألا يوجد عدد كبير من الضباط العمداء الذين يتمتعون بالكفاءة؟".
من هنا، ولدى الاشارة الى أنه لا توجد حكومة لتعيين قائد للجيش، قال عون "لا يزال أمامنا ثلاثة أشهر، فلماذا الاستعجال؟ يبدو أن هناك نية لتعطيل الحكومة بعدما تعطل كل شيء".
واعتبر أن قانون التمديد لقهوجي وللقادة الامنيين "سيمدد ثلاث سنوات للعمداء والعقداء، أي سيصبح لدينا مجموعة كهول في الجيش. فهل يمكن الضابط الميداني أن يعمل كالمحامي والسفير وراء مكتبه".
وقال: "هل أنا ملزم بالأخطاء التي ترتكب في حق الدستور. ما قيمتي كتكتل تغيير وإصلاح اذا وافقت على الاخطاء بالتشريع".
يُشار الى أن ولاية قهوجي تنتهي في ايلول المقبل مع بلوغه سن التقاعد القانوني الـ60، الا أن المطالبين بالتمديد له وللقادة الامنيين يعزون السبب الى الاوضاع الامنية التي يمر بها لبنان في مختلف مناطقه.
أما عن العلاقة مع "حزب الله" ورئيس مجلس النواب نبيه بري، قال عون أن الخلاف هو مع الأخير، الا اذا وقف الحزب مؤيداً للتمديد، وأردف "نحن اختلفنا على التمديد لمجلس النواب، ولكن لا أعتبر ذلك أساسياً، بل يمكن إصلاحه. ولا أستبق للحدث، بل أنتظر ماذا سيحصل".
وعما اذا كان سيعيد النظر في علاقته مع الحزب، أوضح عون أن "الواحد يفتش إذا تكررت الاختلافات. كل واحد لديه طاقة على الاحتمال. فإذا وصلت إلى مكان لا يعود فيه يتحمل يقوم بإعادة نظر. وهذه الإعادة إما تبقيه في مكانه أو تنقله، ولكنها على الأرجح تنقله".
guys guys, he's wearing the same pajamas as in 1990!!!!! yiiiiiiii
is he that poor? after all the money bashar gave him and his in-law stole from us!
Naharnet, thank u for this gr8 picture!!!!
Wrong Phil, you all are blinded by hatred. Aoun has so many mistakes but you cannot discredit the man for wanting democracy to prevail. What the deputies did last month extending their term is a disgrace to Lebanon and us people above all. Even Egypt had its own democratic elections, hell even Yemen had one under extraordinary situations. Why can we have parties and festivals and all but we cannot have democratic elections? Why do we need to extend Kahwaji's term when there are hundreds of capable generals? This has nothing to do with Shamel Roukoz who is regardless of everyone’s hate, one of the best generals. But I wouldn’t want him to become commander in chief just because I don’t want idiots like Geagea and Hariri to make a big story out of it. Let Lebanon survive, let us all return to Lebanon at least for vacation, why do you all aim at cancelling each other?
Democracy my ass. His first son in law stole the ministry of energy and now he wants to set-up his other son-in-law to be the future president. He is dreaming. Even his allies don't want him. He is a wacko.
3 minutes ago MP Bahia Hariri was informed by the army intelligence that Hizbullah had vacated the apartments in Abra and handed them over to the military.
Seems Assir was right all along:)) Notice, how the army intelligence was informed that HA vacated voluntarily the apartments! It did not seem they forced HA to vacate! Why did they not vacate them earlier???
9 minutes ago Future TV: The army intelligence detained Resistance Brigades' member Mahmoud al-Sous over Sidon clashes.
But why???? HA was never involved in the Saida clashes????!!!! Army intelligence arrested a sous for what? Shame on you!
Did someone just say that the ministry of energy has become profitable? That someone either doesn't live in this country or is a total idiot. Electricity was always bad in Lebanon, but never this bad! We spent money on two boats: one is often out of order and the other one must be the boat of the Merchant of Venise (we are still waiting for its arrival).

wat's with these demented people pointing fingers at people. that's sick!!!!
illegal? what he is talking about is illegal.
nowhere in the constitution it is said that people are appointed by their sects!
aoun, go play in your corner. your son in law will not become the next army chief.
no you are totally wrong: in taef it never was said that the cabinet should represent powers according to the parliament.
this is a total BS.
go and check.
God bless General Aoun for his staunch patriotism, defense of Lebanon's democracy, and opposition to February 14-sponsored terrorism.
Naharnet is a very nice site, it becomes an excellent one each time GMA is on its page...lvu GMA n Naharnet :)
“I am against any extension... We should respect the law,” Aoun said.
This is what he said.
Therefore the present self extended parlement is ILLEGAL........
Unless kawagoe makes self extension.....which could become illegally legal...
Does anyone gets it
It's frustrating to see only the General going by the laws of the country, while the rest of the farm boys speak of "dawle" and "dustoor". The general is, and will always be right on everything.
Aoun wants his other son-in-law Chamel Roukoz to become the Army Chief. What happened to Change and Reform? Aoun = Thief No. 1 and his supporters are so blinded by hate they can't seem to see the crystal-clear truth.
The only reasons Aoun opposed extension of the parliament is to have the right to oppose the renewal for the Army Chief and the President, one he wants to give for his son-in-law and the other for himself. Otherwise, let him and his PMs resign from the parliament and force new elections for their seats. Lambs still don't get it.
he said no to rifi. he is saying no to kahwaji,he said no to parliament.
live with it that is protecting democracy.you don't like it start packing.
Let him resign if he refuses the parliament term extension. Then I will respect and believe him. Otherwise, he is a liar and a hypocrite. Lebanese are smart (well all except Aounis) and they know the truth from cheap political maneuvers for personal gains.
If he resigns, he's faction that is for the stringent imposition of the rule of law will be diminished.
Think of it this way: If your neighbors in the building are divided over burning the whole thing down, should you leave in protest or stay and defend your position/see to it that nobody gets the gasoline? The only logical option would be for the whole parliament to resign.
No way! I am shocked! (NOT!)
Aoun is amazing. He is stealing in the name of reform and change and his lambs still don't see it. He played them to fear the Sunnis while the country is being raped by Hezbollah.
Don't you get it ?
Unfortunately, in the recent history, many chief general were elected president. Chehab could have been one of the best president, but by accepting to move directly from the Army to the Presidency, he opened a Pandora's box !
Aoun is still seeking the presidency at any cost.
Having a less-recognized name, junior, not experienced chief general will create less competition come election time. Kahwaji is now the contender in chief to replace the current president.
Z general the Amazing little man...The "Boumeh" without substance...unbelievable that he still has some brainless followers...
LOL.... His followers aren't brainless, they follow their interests such as FT and his 72 virgins, ehhhhhh I mean his 72 aliases.
