فرنجية يرفض التمديد لسليمان: أنا وعون مرشحان للرئاسة

Read this story in English W460

أعلن رئيس "تيار المردة" النائب سليمان فرنجية أنه ضد التمديد لرئيس الجمهورية ميشال سليمان، معلناً في الوقت عينه أنه ورئيس "التيار الوطني الحر" النائب ميشال عون مرشحان للرئاسة.

وفي حديث الى تلفزيون "المنار"، الخميس، أكد فرنجية أنه "لن يسير بالتمديد لسليمان مهما كان موقف الحلفاء، معتبرا ان سليمان ليس وسطياً بل هو طرف".

وأضاف أن "سليمان يرمي البلد في المجهول"، كاشفاً عن ترشحه وعون لرئاسة الجمهورية قائلاً"على فريقنا الاتفاق على مرشح".

يشار الى أن ولاية سليمان تنتهي في أيار 2014، وحتى الآن، لا يزال غير واضح مصير الانتخابات الرئاسية، خصوصاً في ظل رفض سليمان التمديد لولايته.

الى ذلك، لفت فرنجية عبر "المنار"، الى أن "ناقوس الخطر سيدق في حال تشكيل الحكومة بطريقة خاطئة"، مضيفاً أنه "ضد اي حكومة غير وفاقية".

يُذكر أنه ومنذ استقالة حكومة ميقاتي في نيسان الفائت، تم تكليف تمام سلام تشكيل حكومة الا أن جهودة لم تنجح بعد، نظراً للشروط والشروط المضادة من الافرقاء.

God bless you Franjieh, you and Aoun are the real christian leaders!

Thumb Mystic 13:27 ,2013 كانون الأول 26

I'm actually saying the exact opposite. I believe Aoun or Franjieh would be good Presidents in Lebanon, unlike Sulaiman that cast himself to the Saudi regime.

Thumb Mystic 22:20 ,2013 كانون الأول 26

I will continue to bless the man, that could defy most of the world, and the most of the world powers thought he would be gone within few months, but no he is still there with his people, fighting foreign terrorism. He is the man that won despite everything people said and barked about him. Shabiha btw is a western term & propaganda.

They are the best leaders, protecting christians and in the same time keeps good relations to other sects. You can whine all night IbnAlQaeda it wont change anything. lol

You criticize Sulaiman to be pro Saudi regime but you think that it is ok for Aoun and Franjieh of being pro syrian regime.

So supporting tyrannic and murderous regimes like Syrian and Iran is truly Christian?

Thumb Mystic 09:36 ,2013 كانون الأول 27

Atleast they don't slaughter them, like the Saudi regime does. Nothing is worse than Saudi, Syria and Iran are angel countries compared to that medieval kingdom of sand.

Lah lah ya 5ayye FT, none of these candidates are fit to run even a farm, let alone a whole nation. be it Frangieh, or Aoun or Geagea, 3an jad 7aram 3aleykoun, the people of Lebanon cannot take anymore punches, kafanah ya jame3a, kafana biyye3an Basal wou batata. The 3 candidates I named are all corrupt and are NOT impartial, Frangieh has said it publicly, he is tied to Bachar Al Assad, Aoun God knows what he wants and Geagea is as rotten. It keeps baffling, seriously so, I am totally flabbergasted to notice that NO ONE so far has bothered even mentioning the name of a great person, DEMIANOS KATTAR, a true gentleman, a professional economist, and a 100% clean patriot. Why no one mentions his name? because he is unimpeachable and will expose each and every single thief.

Thumb Mystic 13:30 ,2013 كانون الأول 26

Phoenix, atleast they are not worse than Geagea or Sulaiman, and i can't see any wrong with being tied to Assad, in this dark times, Lebanon needs the best killing takfiri machine alliance.

Thumb -phoenix1 13:41 ,2013 كانون الأول 26

Mystic, brother, with all my respects to you and in fact everyone over this issue, I do not like nor wish to see any old face come over to fill this sensitive post. Of course I do know your political views on Al Assad, but at least I feel that we Lebanese need to make a clean break from our old habits, we need the courage and the vision to see a little further than just being bound to anyone, we must stand as a free people, free to decide where we wish to go and where we wish NOT to go, neither of any mentioned candidate has it in him, to me they are all expired products that belong to a bypassed era, they are products that are dangerous to the health and well-being of the nation and the people. We need a strong charismatic figure that can unite instead of divide, we Lebanese now are as broken as a glass of crystal, but we are not yet beyond help, if only.....

Thumb -phoenix1 13:56 ,2013 كانون الأول 26

Yeslam temmak FT, Ziad Baroud is an excellent choice, bravo, one that I have absolutely no qualms in seeing fill this post.

Thumb Mystic 14:15 ,2013 كانون الأول 26

Thx for your input bro phoenix, I'm always excited to see your views on things, thats the only reason i want to debate with you, because you are a respectable person, even tho we do not agree on everything.

Thumb thepatriot 15:29 ,2013 كانون الأول 26

And now... FT the idiot wants Baroud (an independent)... when we know that M14 is screaming for an independent government... it makes you wonder how brainwashed and binary FT is...hehehehe...

Thumb ado.australia 17:35 ,2013 كانون الأول 26

Ziad baroud would be a great candidate. Unfortunately he will never be Presidant because he is non partisan (not political) and he can't be bought (too honest), by the powers to be, he will to be allowed... Or if he was elected by some chance, he would proberbly end up like Elias Sarkis! Not decisive or strong enough to deal with the mustaqbul and hezbollah conflict.

We need a strong leader that has the balls to truly put Lebanon agenda before any other. This requires diplomacy and foriegn connections but also the military connection. This leaves khawajie as the best candidate and with him a military coup of all institutions to clease us of the sectarian controlled and corrupt institutions.

Thumb ado.australia 19:30 ,2013 كانون الأول 26

FT... Your right about the expired parliament, but how is this challenged when the LF, mustaqbul, Hezbollah, amal, psp, and the rest of the current financed "independant" MPs have agreed to ignore the constitution?

My view is that only a military coup can realign and correct the Lebanese republic.

Thumb thepatriot 09:53 ,2013 كانون الأول 27

Aoun maybe, but Franghie is too young and inexperienced. He is too partisan and too pro syrian. His family connection to the Assad family is too much and his grandfather, although he threw an ashtray at Henry Kissinger when he suggested that Lebanese Christians leave to Canada and allow the Palestinians to live in their place to resolve the Israeli problem...we cannot forget that he supported the Syrian occupation of Lebanon until the very end!

Thumb ado.australia 19:25 ,2013 كانون الأول 26

M11er... Where can u back up that claim that Aoun vetoed Ziad baroud? Ziad baroud was supported by the fpm and was the fpm's suggestion as a neutral interior minister! It was only a few years ago and already some are trying to rewrite history. Ziad baroud was often questioned and challenged by the fpm during his duty as a cabinet minister but this is what should be expected in a democracy.

Aoun often was seen as bias by defending him but also pointing out the reality that he was an honest person swimming amoungst sharks.

Politics aside... Ziad Baroud was too good for the dirty politics of Lebanon and he will still struggle today. One day he will have a great and popular role, but only after this dirty and joke of a parliament is finished.

Missing peace 19:31 ,2013 كانون الأول 26

"Aoun said that Baroud's performance as a minister was not good "due to the authority he represents" and refused to repeat the same experience for three new years." al manar
"He says he was targeted by both Aoun’s coalition and the Future Movement and its March 14 allies. " al akhbar

aoun contributed along with M14 to smear his image and attack him...

Thumb ado.australia 20:41 ,2013 كانون الأول 26

For those that have selective memories... Here is a link to ya libnan... A m14 site.

http://www.yalibnan.com/2011/03/09/another-rift-between-baroud-and-rifi-report/

Baroud resigned because ashraf Rifi refused to take his orders as his superior...the interior minister! He could not control the isf that was led by Rifi and the marytre Hassan.

The isf and intellegiance branch invaded the telecom ministry and held the telecom minister marwan Charbel hostage. Ziad baroud ordered them to retreat and they refused... Only leaving after the Prime minister intervened.

This was why he resigned. Because the mustaqbul followers in the government refused to obay his orders.

This is the truth and the fpm where only against him because the interior ministry needed some me capable of cleaning out the sectarian elements. Something Ziad baroud clearly couldn't do if they refused simple orders!

Phoneix 1 with all due respect to you only because you have the patriot of Bachir, I ask you to stop attacking Samir Geagea because if you don't know he was the right hand of Sheikh Bachir for many years. I need to explain why Hakim doesn't deserve the presidency knowing that he had sacrificed so much for Lebanon and the christians. I ask you if you know the guy and if you kow his achievements. Did you know that he used to be on the front lines at all battles and defeated his enemies in most battles.

Did you know that he didn't start any battle but rather was shoved into them like harb share2 Saida (east of Saida) which was started by Fouad abi Nadel or Harb Jabal started by Hobeika, Fadi Frem and Amine Gemayel or Harb elgha2 where AOun declared war on the lebanese forces to disarm while non-lebanese and the syrian army were armed to their teeth. DID GEAGEA MAKE MISTAKES ? Definitely but who didn't. Remember he never sold out nor bought. He spent 11 years in jail because he has principles and he never knelled to anyone. So please be objective with your posts
