العاهل السعودي يعين الامير مقرن وليا مقبلا للعهد

Read this story in English W460

قرر العاهل السعودي الملك عبد الله بن عبد العزيز مساء الخميس تعيين اخيه غير الشقيق الامير مقرن وليا مقبلا للعهد مع الاحتفاظ بمنصبه نائبا ثانيا لرئيس الوزراء.

وافاد بيان ملكي ان العاهل قرر تعيين الامير مقرن "وليا لولي العهد" و"وليا للعهد في حال خلو منصب ولي العهد او منصبي الملك وولي العهد فتتم حينها مبايعة الامير مقرن ملكا".

واكد الامر الملكي انه "لا يجوز تعديله او تبديله باي صوة كانت ومن اي كائن كان" مشيرا الى حصول التعيين على موافقة "ثلاثة ارباع اعضاء هيئة البيعة" وعددهم 34 اميرا.

وياتي القرار عشية زيارة يقوم بها الرئيس الاميركي باراك اوباما الى المملكة حيث سيجري محادثات مع الملك عبدالله.

وكانت مصادر سعودية مطلعة اكدت في وقت سابق اليوم ان الملك (90) عاما طلب من هيئة البيعة الموافقة على تعيين الامير مقرن وليا للعهد بعد تولي الامير سلمان العرش على ان يحل الامير متعب نجل الملك مكان الامير مقرن نائبا ثانيا لرئيس الوزراء.

واضافت ان ثلثي اعضاء هيئة البيعة وافقوا على هذه الخطوة في حال تولي ولي العهد الامير سلمان العرش او "السفر الى الخارج بداعي المرض".

يشار الى ان الامير مقرن (68 عاما) هو اصغر ابناء الملك المؤسس عبد العزيز.

وضمن آليات الخلافة التي اقرت قبل بضعة اعوام، عين الملك عبد الله اعضاء هيئة البيعة ووضع على رأسها اخيه غير الشقيق الامير مشعل بن عبد العزيز.

وتضم الهيئة 34 اميرا من ابناء واحفاد الملك عبد العزيز مهمتهم تامين انتقال الحكم ضمن آل سعود لا سيما عبر المشاركة في اختيار ولي العهد.

والهيئة مكونة من ابناء الملك المؤسس. وينوب عن المتوفين والمرضى والعاجزين منهم، احد ابنائهم يضاف اليهم اثنان من ابناء كل من ابناء الملك المؤسس يعينهما الملك وولي العهد.

ويقترح الملك على "هيئة البيعة" اسما او اسمين او ثلاثة اسماء لمنصب ولي العهد.

ويمكن للجنة ان ترفض هذه الاسماء وتعين مرشحا لم يقترحه الملك.

واذا لم يحظ مرشح الهيئة بموافقة الملك، فان "هيئة البيعة" تحسم الامر بالغالبية في عملية تصويت يشارك فيها مرشحها ومرشح يعينه الملك.

LOL, democracy at work people. And this is the country that's calling for democracy in Syria, LOL.

yaaay, democracy at work, saudi style. the m14 muppets love it, "freedom" is only good when it's about butchering syrians...

Thumb ex-fpm 20:20 ,2014 آذار 27

ironic indeed! mowaten criticizes the Saudi monarchy but would give his life for the syrian regime that made the presidency a family owned business. Hypocrite

Thumb FlameCatcher 19:43 ,2014 آذار 27

Karim, you're an idiot. KSA is a kingdom and both you and I despise such regimes. They are not a democracy and don't claim to be.

Syria and Iran on the other hand are democracies (in theory). But they are ruled by dictators.

Thumb FlameCatcher 12:06 ,2014 آذار 28

@FT : you are perfectly describing HEZBOLLAH !

You really are an idiot !

Thumb thepatriot 14:57 ,2014 آذار 28

yeah... you're right karim... getting elected with 93.6% of the votes is true Democracy... as far as I know, Syria is no Monarchy...well...

Thumb ado.australia 18:33 ,2014 آذار 27

Such transparency is the model of western democracy... no wonder KSA is the favourite, most friendly model arab country in the world... the Saud family business has a strong future much like the Murdoch family.

Khomeynist haters can hate all they want, those are the people helping our economy, our army, and employing 120k+ lebanese of all sects, unlike khamenei's Iran helping and arming only HizbIran...
God bless the King...

You salafis talk about democracy, just like Saudia wanted democracy for Syria? Hmm how about their own country, women can't even drive. Is that freedom?

Thumb Mystic 00:33 ,2014 آذار 28

cedre ya salafi. Wasen't that what the Saudis wanted for Syria? Freedom and democracy and all that? Why do they not implement it, in their own excuse of a country?

Thumb cedre 01:38 ,2014 آذار 28

mastic, u're even more ignorant than i thought.
But where did u learn english if u're so stupid ?

Thumb Mystic 02:51 ,2014 آذار 28

I am always happy when a salafi says, I am ignorant. Then i always know i'm on the right track, thanks for reminding me.

Check your history. It was the Shiites who housed the Jews when Zionism came to the region. They fled Palestine into the south and were taken in by Shiites to protect them from the Sunnis. You can't change your past.

the Lebanese diaspora in the world
500k in the gulf and about 5 million in the west
and if people do their math they will know from where Lebanon survived for centuries
arab spring in the gulf countries now

Just comparing apples to apples my friend. Both are backward. One is not better than the other just because a woman can drive. My advice if that is too much in your mouth is to chew slowly. Eventually you will taste it and see things for what they are.

Thumb arzak-ya-libnan 19:59 ,2014 آذار 27

That's right fd. KSA who have been one of the biggest players in Lebanon since the civil war and use Lebanon to spend their petro dollars on vices that are unavailable in their country woke up one day and said screw it. We don't need a bordello. But we sure can use another madrasa.

Thumb arzak-ya-libnan 21:11 ,2014 آذار 27

In a lot of ways I agree John. Saudi was never high in my list of favorite countries. And if they don't change with the times, time will change them. Compared to the rest of the gcc unemployment is rampant and poverty and illiteracy is 10 fold what it is in the rest of the gulf. It is unfortunate that the power because of the oil is vested upon KSA and not a more progressive country like the uae.

Thumb arzak-ya-libnan 21:13 ,2014 آذار 27

But what you are applying to KSA applies equally upon Iran. Very backward. High unemployment. Mass poverty. And an increasing illiterate population.

Thumb arzak-ya-libnan 09:50 ,2014 آذار 28

FT it might be because of sanctions. But didn't they say they are self reliant? These sanctions were agreed to by ALL powers. So don't you think they have a point? Hey they just don't want to trade with Iran. Who are you to force them?
Iran is a regional power at best. A world power??? Mmmmmm no.

Thumb arzak-ya-libnan 17:34 ,2014 آذار 28

John if you really saud you can denounce the president in Iran without penalty you need to check your facts. How about the supreme leader? Can you murmur his name without being crucified? There is No difference between KSA and Iran in the way the country is ruled. Both have a king. And both are not really supported by its people.

Great. Same goes for m8. Who pays HAs salary again??

Thumb arzak-ya-libnan 09:47 ,2014 آذار 28

Well considering KSA does not have a parliament it would be hard to have them represented. Besides. There are no Christian Saudis or Jewish Saudis. And expats cannot be represented in parliament or else if KSA did have a parliament it would be full of Iranians!!!!
Iran bought Pakistani nuclear tech.
Last I checked saudi women have access to the Internet. There is no male organ identifier on computers in KSA.
Iran and KSA apply sharia law. So women are treated according to that.
Iran has an ancient culture that has ZERO to do with current Iranian culture. And the vast majority of Iranians hate the theocracy they live in.
KSA is the cradle of Islam. That's history enough to be proud of.
Please show me a link where KSA said they are going to demolish the birthplace of Mohamed???

Ahhh, Iran. a country that I can call home..........beautiful palm trees, rolling desert, an oasis here and there, sunburnt during the day, freezing cold at nights, harems in every tent, camel milk in the morning, camel meat in the evenings, church bells ringing, bikini clad women on sandy desert beaches, ice cold beer in one hand, bacon & eggs in the other, now that's what I call a life and make it my perfect home. But the Basij police just woke me up from my dreams with a sword on my neck just because I dreamt it! Did you get it? Iran stay out of our way, Lebanon is & will always be Waliy al faqih free, as for your faqih, well as the old saying goes, anything that doesn't have the support of the people doesn't last.

Thumb arzak-ya-libnan 09:54 ,2014 آذار 28

Not that I do not agree with your KSA dream. I 100% do. Just adding another dream.

Thumb arzak-ya-libnan 11:11 ,2014 آذار 28

i get it!!! and i am with you in everything you said.. but when you speak of a dream in KSA, you can extend the same to Iran...
i only care about Lebanon, and am the first to tell you to give the LAF all the authority, and be the only weapons in Lebanon...
i too do not want Saudi culture in Lebanon as much as i do not want Iranian culture in Lebanon.
i want to down a bottle of arak for lunch and a bottle of whisky for dinner, and have pork for breakfast lunch and dinner...
i want to swim and go enjoy the scenes of our beautiful ladies in their skimpy bikinis..
but when you dream of one nightmare, dream of the other as well..
when you speak of the LAF and that you served (which i am not denying) and your children serve, then you should see that HA is enemy number 1..(locally speaking)
you should support the principles of an unarmed militia, be it from m14 or m8.. and ask the LAF to crack the heads of someone who carries a slingshot..

Thumb arzak-ya-libnan 11:12 ,2014 آذار 28

that is when we are Lebanon w bass... LAF w bass... TRUE Lebanese people w bass... not when we justify the arms of one and curse the weapons of another... curse them all.. and be a true Lebanese... curse all the foreign backers of BOTH.. and then you are a true Lebanese.

Thumb arzak-ya-libnan 12:00 ,2014 آذار 28

Now I know you are a total idiot. I am talking about the country. And your level of discussion and retorting to low level tactics shows me that your iq is on par to the size of my shoe.

Thumb arzak-ya-libnan 12:08 ,2014 آذار 28

I beg to differ wolf. Someone who supports the principles of one army. The LAF. Is as much a true Lebanese as those fighting in it. I have plenty of family members in the LAF. And not a single one of us in any armed militia. That makes us true Lebanese. Sometimes the pen is mightier than the sword. And just because I believe in the one and only LAF. And no their militia. But am not part of the LAF does not make me less lebanese. I do not curse unless cursed at. And consider myself more lebanese than any politician we have. And consider anyone who supports an armed militia, from whichever side, a fake one. Regardless if he/she is or was in the LAF.

To M8 sheep who usurp the term "democracy" when they don't understand the first thing about it : what do you call criminal Bashar el Assad succeeding his criminal father Hafez ? How is this any different from Saudi Monarchy righfully appointing successors to the throne ? Saudi never claimed to be a democracy and Saudis never revolted agains their regime although I see a million reasons for a revolution to happen there !

Thumb arzak-ya-libnan 17:38 ,2014 آذار 28

I believe we are. And I believe more Lebanese should be. No militias anymore. No fake resistance let us embrace our LAF. And if anyone dares tread on it then we are all LAF. And we are all the resistance.
