Jumblat Lashes Out at EDL, Environment Ministry Officials
Progressive Socialist Party leader Walid Jumblat on Tuesday launched a blistering verbal attack on the “owners” of both the country's private power generators and the Turkish power ships as well as some officials at state-run Electricité Du Liban and the Environment Ministry.
“As the country drowns in floods, rivers of garbage, a polluted Litani River and darkness, the government is negotiating with the owners of generators instead of building a new power plant,” Jumblat tweeted.
“There is no difference between the owners of generators and the owners of the Turkish ships. Meanwhile, the thugs at EDL and the Environment Ministry are carrying out a purge and vengeance policy. Damn the hour in which they ascended to power. Thugs!” Jumblat added, in an apparent reference to the Free Patriotic Movement.

he may not be directly in power but he still has a lot of influence. I hate to say it but the Lebanese people are idiots. The all know what the clowns in power are doing and are against it, but dare say anything against anyone from a different religious sect and all hell breaks loose. they need to get away from religion and focus on Lebanon as a society. they all still live in the past. the question one needs to ask what did these leaders every provide to the people that voted them in the answer is a country in debt with no functioning government but very rich politicians... go figure

Neing a socialist he probably voted against privatization of EDL and other State run industries. Anything the state puts it's hand on becomes ineffective and rife with corruption.
