Hizbullah Demands End to Waste Disposal 'Farce,' Calls for 'Reasonable' Solutions
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Hizbullah rejected on Tuesday the bids to tackle the waste management crisis, deeming the proposed prices as a “scandal.”
It said in a statement: “We call an end for the farce of the negative consequences of the crisis and demand reasonable solutions that would tackle the transitional phase ahead of reaching the strategic plan.”
“The waste crisis clearly indicates who is responsible for it,” added the party.
“The size of the environmental and social disaster was demonstrated by the popular explosion,” it said in reference to weekend protests led by the You Stink civil society campaign.
“The trash crisis is one of the signs of the accumulating corruption, which would not have reached such a level had a proposal on the issue, made in 1997, been adopted,” said Hizbullah without elaborating.
Lebanon was plunged in a trash disposal crisis after the closure of the Naameh landfill in July.
The landfill was shut without the establishment of an alternative, resulting in the overflowing of waste at dumpsters throughout the country as the cabinet struggled to find a permanent solution to the problem.
The cabinet agreed on Tuesday to dedicate 100 million dollars to set up a temporary dump in the northern region of Akkar.
Tenders for the waste management were announced on Monday, but they were rejected by a number of officials, who slammed their high prices.
The cabinet later canceled the bids in favor of setting up the Akkar dump.

Instead of lecturing and taking the usual high moral ground, you are in the government and it would add credence to your statement if you were to suggest a solution instead of keep barking as usual.

"being in the governement" is not some sort of magical thing that gives you any and every powers marcus, each minister has a portfolio, and can only act in his area of jusrisdiction. unfortunately for you and those who always try to use HA as scapegoat, their two ministers hold positions that are completely unrelated to this crisis.
as for the solution, it is obvious to all but the most decerebrated among us: make open bids and chose the best offer, not the one where politicians get the biggest cut.

They always use the diffamation technique created by the Mollahs and uses in addition to Taqiyah (dissimulation) the Takhrib (attacking opponents instead of answering their arguments) and the Siahkari to defame someone (zionist, takfiri, saudi, wahhabi, da3ishi...).
This diffamation technique is revealed openly by Amir Taheri an iranian journalist. It is a proof that those who use it are under iranian command.

as for the anonymoustaxi, you keep whining and accusing randomly, but you fail to see the obvious which is in front of your eyes: the only ones rejecting this farcical deal are hezbollah.

i literally laughed out loud at the hypocrisy of the iranian mowaten when he shows disgust at others' use of filthy language but takes joy and pride in his own insults.

i was laughing the same way exactly the same and it was loud, very loud mowaten!!! We are so similar it is beyond coincidence. We are both shia pretentious seculars, both paid to post, post sectarian to the bone, both have multiple accounts. I hope that just because we laugh out loud the same way people don't think we are the same poster.

what the real "Farce" is hezbollah calling itself "resistance" and defining it as "the road to Palestine goes through Syria". That is the real farce!

Lebanon has become a garbage nation; garbage politicians supported by garbage people whose gross national product is garbage.
And still they dance and party like they are in Paris or LA, bit step outside and smell the stench and the stink. It is the smell of a nation dying in the vice grip of Hezbollah that has used the Aounists to paralyze all government and cause this state of affairs. Lebanon and Lebanese . . . You Stink for allowing this state of affairs to have come to this point. Plastic surgery only covers the ugliness.
