Hezbollah refuses to allow Syrian refugee camps in Lebanon

Share:

Hezbollah Deputy Secretary General Naim Qassem said on Saturday that his party will never accept the establishment of Syrian refugee camps in Lebanon.

“We cannot accept the establishment of Syrian refugee camps in Lebanon because such camps will turn into a military island against Syria first and then Lebanon,” the National News Agency quoted Qassem as saying.

Qassem also slammed the March 14 coalition, saying that it is moving from one failure to another.

“Those who were betting on changes in Syria have failed, and March 14 is now moving from one failure to the other on the local and Syrian levels and on the level of its [political] project.”

The UN says more than 7,500 people have been killed in the crackdown on Syrian protesters who have been demonstrating against the Baath regime since mid-March 2011. Thousands have fled to Lebanon, where the political scene is split between supporters of the Syrian regime – led by Hezbollah – and the pro-Western March 14 camp.

The Hezbollah official also brought up the issue of past cabinets expenditures.

“We cannot grant acquittals for unclear and illegal expenses,” he said.

He also said that the accounts and records of former cabinets given by Siniora to the Court of Audit are not accurate.

“When they sent the information to the Court of Audit regarding the [expenditures of Siniora’s cabinets], the Court of Audit asked the Finance Ministry after three weeks to send another copy of the records, and it turned out that the two copies are different, because the information in the first copy is unsettled and false.”

The subject of the government’s spending from 2006-2011, when no state budget was approved, is currently among the controversial issues on the political scene.

The cabinet on Friday approved in principle to contract a specialized company for assistance in auditing government spending from 1993 to 2010.

It also agreed on an amended formula to Finance Minister Mohammad Safadi’s draft law on past cabinet spending.

    Yah Qassem … we don’t want to emulate the past at all … like the palestinians moving in. And we can’t count the movement of Syrians into Lebanon during the occupation either. These ‘new’ people just wouldn’t fit in. They search for freedom, and all that old stuff. So we’ll let them be free to find food and water wherever they can.
    Did you just want to send the present 12,000 back to Assad’s butchers? Or maybe some of the ‘others’ too??

    OK then let us start by sending the Palestinians back to Palestine… Then we will deal with the Syrians… While you’re at it would you please send back those Persians fighting along side with you back to Iran? We have real men in our national army to defend Lebanon no need for an armed Persian Siamese cats around.

    This goon is speaking from experience. What h/a achieved throughout the years is using the “liberation” motto to establish itself and turn to be a mole for the iran and syria, willing to kill LEBANESE citizens under false pretenses. Not that I want additional non-lebanese in the country, but it seems to me that h/a does not want competition….Hopefully and shortly after the fall of ass’aid, h/a will have nowhere to turn, may be that will be an opportune time to talk about the disarmament of their followers and really wear the badge of honor and act like a Lebanese citizen. Palestine liberation under which h/a seems to be fighting for, is no longer an issue it seems. The arab countries have abandoned it so is h/a and anyone who brings up this subject is only for personal benefits, nothing less and nothing more. I suggest that the palestinian people UNITE and have direct negotiation with netanyahu and put him to task and achieve what they have been longing for.

    Dispatching Mr. Annan as the UN envoy to Syria indicates that we are moving into a political solution with the regime. The unwavering support by Russia and China at the UN has mostly kept the regime intact and gave the high ranking officials the political umbrella to feel safe and to stick with the status quo for now.

    Some might argue that pragmatic Syrians have tasted the plight of the Lebanese and Iraqi people along their borders and choose to stay home. Could it be the reason why we do not see the masses in the streets anymore?

      Lebanon is well awake,  The problem is That  USA and Israel don’t want Our Army to buy weapons arguing that this will fall in HA’s hands,  Yet they demand Our Government to deal with them,  I find this the upmost hypocritical and stupid statements made by Israel and USA in the History of Humankind. 
      It is immoral and inhumane to veto and impose this situation in Lebanon,  Where the interest of Israel and USA is civil unrest so they can invade as false redeemers, Is a sickening Status Quo.

    The hell with Hezbullah…they have some nerve trying to set policy on refugees from Syria…when Israel was shooting them up their rear, during their “divine” victory in 2006, their people ran to Syria as refugees. Soon, Hezbullah will be refugees, and they can go live in Iran with their masters….those dogs…

      They proved extremely resourceful against fate7 el Islam in Nahr el Bared… They made their own weapons. They are sitting around all day they can reverse engineer a lot of weapons. It is the will that they lack not the weapons. They need a country to believe in… but how can you have them achieve that when a fatwa can dismantle it and send everyone back to their clans or sect. The cancer is religion and we need to have a system that makes us believe again in Lebanon and have Lebanese heroes on posters not Khamenei or Assad’s picture to welcome me in my own airport. I need parties to raise my Lebanese flag not parties that raise Iranian, Saudi or Syrian flags. I need parties to unite my Lebanese constituents not Lebanon to Syria, or to Arabia or Persia. What my army needs is people to believe in Lebanon FIRST. I have a dream…

    Hannibal, There is so much mistrust that no conceivable system will prevail over the differences that exist and the fear that each sect or clan have for one another. How can you unite the constituents that have unanimously pledged allegiance to outside powers and failed the people over and over again. They keep playing us against each other and we keep falling for the same old trick. It is a daunting task to keep chasing that elusive dream… I am not encourged either by the views I read on this site which leads me to believe that we are passing the same cancer to our children and granchildren.

    From the Tripoli Star:

    Visits to refugee areas around the country reveal a large number of families that are not registered and not receiving consistent aid from the U.N.

    The latest UNHCR report says there are around 7,000 registered refugees living in north Lebanon and around 5,000 living in the Bekaa and south of Beirut, putting refugee numbers at around 12,000 in the country. The UNHCR is distributing aid to several thousand refugees on a weekly basis, but thousands more remain beyond their reach.

    Activists estimate there are actually around 16,000 refugees in the north alone, over twice the official number. There is also an undetermined number of more affluent Syrian nationals who have chosen to reside in Lebanon temporarily, until the unrest in their country is resolved.

    Jordanian officials recently reported that their Syrian refugee population totals over 80,000. Activists say it is possible Lebanon’s refugee numbers are many times larger than are reported.

    The Lebanese government has declined to set up official camps for the refugees, leaving people to seek out areas around the country willing to take them.

    There are now refugee populations of over 1,000 scattered across towns like Arsal in the Bekaa, and various sites in the north, as well as the main refugee operation area of Wadi Khaled in Akkar.

    UNHCR has limited access to the refugees in the north; they are hemmed in by strict agreements over aid with the government. The organization lacks a permanent office in the biggest refugee areas, namely Tripoli or Wadi Khaled.

    A group of around 20 aid workers is responsible for patrolling the entire north of the country and registering new refugees. It’s a small group of people in a massive area and UNHCR officials recognize their teams are stretched thin.

    The government has also shut down refugee registration for weeks at a time in certain areas with no explanation, according to a recent UNHCR report.

    lebanon should disarm all forigners starting from palestinians , the syrian refugee s should be welcomed as long as they are not carrying weapons ,and should be a limited number , because lebanon is so tiny , refugee should not exceed 5% of the lebaneese population , because they will become a threat to a national security of the country
    there are 400,000 palestinians  refugees , that is exceeding the limit of any country national security , which is 10%
    of the population, lebanon should limit the number to 100,000 palestinians and 50,000 syrians  refugees  mximum ,,any number higher than this it will endanger the existence of the lebaneese state .and the sfaety of the lebaneese people

    obviously like your web-site however you have to test the spelling on several of
    your posts. A number of them are rife with spelling problems and I
    in finding it very bothersome to tell the truth nevertheless I will certainly come
    again again.
