Future Movement backs Geagea for President, would never support Aoun

Share:

geagea - aounFuture MP Atef Majdalani confirmed that his bloc has no objection to Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea representing the March 14 alliance in the upcoming presidential elections, and said rumors that the Future Movement would support Free Patriotic Movement leader Michel Aoun as a presidential candidate were untrue.

“There is someone trying to [stir up trouble] in March 14. [The idea] of Michel Aoun being presented as a candidate by the Future Movement is inconceivable.”

“[We have no objection] to the adoption of Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea as the March 14 [bloc’s] presidential nominee,” Majdalani told Radio Free Lebanon on Tuesday.

He added that rumors claiming the Future Movement would support Aoun as a presidential candidate were false.

“We confirm that March 14 forces will go united to the presidential elections.”

On Tuesday Geagea said, “the Lebanese need a president who does not compromise and who rather takes clear and bold stances and the Bekaa and the North need an urgent security plan.”

Now Lebanon, Naharnet

      Nope … same problem as women have … Religions & Their Gangs.
      “BEIRUT: A woman died last week after reportedly being shot in the chest by her husband, a local non-governmental organization told The Daily Star Monday, the latest in a series of domestic violence cases plaguing Lebanon.
      Rouqaya Mounzer was allegedly shot in the chest by her husband Wednesday night, said Maya Ammar, communications officer at KAFA. It is not known whether she died immediately or at the hospital.
      Mounzer, 24, lived in Beirut’s southern suburbs with her husband, identified as M.M., and their two young children. She had been married for seven years, according to Ammar.
      “It was most probably her husband [who killed her],” she told The Daily Star. “It was known that he was violent with her.”
      This is the third such case in Lebanon this year, …. etc …
      A draft law to protect women from domestic violence was first submitted to Parliament in 2010. A parliamentary subcommittee began studying the draft in May 2011 and finalized its amendments in August 2012, which altered the title of the text, now referring to violence against the family, as opposed to women specifically. A key clause criminalizing marital rape was removed by the committee after it sparked a backlash from religious figures and some politicians.”
      BUT …. here’s some parties to consider if voting …
      “Of the 128-member Parliament, 43 supported the draft law in 2012, mostly from the Lebanese Forces, Free Patriotic Movement, Future Movement and Kataeb Party.”

        Domestic violence against women by shites? Who would’ve guessed. It’s not like them to use violence against women, look at the perfect shite gentlemen on this blog who would never threaten a woman, let alone hit her. Shites are a peace loving people who r only forced to resist by Israel and Wahhabis/salafis/takfeeris/Martians.

            ??? Haven’t you seen the filth spewing out of Iran? They teach things like:

            Everybody knows that Imam Hussain, the third Imam and his friends were killed by Yazid, The Omavi Caliph of Islam. Everybody knows that Yazid was neither a Christian nor a Jew. He was a Moslem. If he was a Shia he would not do that and therefore he must be a Sunni

            — Oh really? Is this logic?

            “they teach things like”, really? Where did you get this excerpt from? An article by Dr Esaam al Emad? There are lots of Sunni scholars/Imams who talk badly about Shi’ite and how they are sinners. How they deserve death, and on and on. This doesn’t mean these people represent the entire Sunni community.

            What do some scholars/Politicians/Rabbis in Israel say about Sunnis/Arabs? They love them to death? Or do they think of them as less than human?

            All political and religious groups have benign and radical elements. Does that give a foreign country a right to exploit the stupidity of a part of one group to serve their national interest??? Furthermore, whatever goes on in Israel, I have no idea, but if you want to know, you’re more than welcome to go and ask them… oops… well, maybe not…

            “All political and religious groups have benign and radical elements.”, exactly! How do you know that is happening in Iran? Because you read an an article written by a Shi’ite convert? I don’t have to go to Israel to find out what goes on, they don’t exactly make their feelings secret. Have you been to Iran to find out how the general population feels and thinks? The radical elements of a government doesn’t represent all members of a society.

            All religious radical leaders should be avoided, and most of them are. Its just a shame though that in the case of the welfare parasites in Ramallah who spread religious hatred and incitement, we give them billions from our tax money. We try being civilized and give aid to civilians, and $3 billion of this goes ‘missing’ which ends up with 1,700 Hamas millionaires

            man-o-war

            If I notice blanket statements regarding a religion or sect that’s degrading and just plain wrong, I call it out. I’m not on here 24/7, some things do slip by me. I’m not defending Hinds statements, but most of the time they are referring to extremist elements of the Sunni religion. For example, ones that commit suicide bombings and beheadings. I could be wrong, she can defend herself if need be. She makes lots of comments I don’t agree with, sometimes I respond to them and sometimes I just ignore and move on. It depends on my mood.

            It’s fine for you to defend the Sunnis when you feel they’re being slandered, nothing wrong with that. What you did here though is just inaccurate. Shi’ite are not unique when it comes to domestic abuse, and you know that to be true.

            No.

            Doing it in his heart is like doing it for real. He’s one of the few who owned up to it

            lol, was a comparison between someone who merely speaks of his actions and someone who admits he’s done it in his heart. Sinning in your mind is no different than in reality from an ethical point of view. Of course harm etc in the actual world is bad but thats more from a psychology/anthropology point of view, not the subject of ethics

            One needs to understand the reality of an action, and it’s effect, before making a decision to not do it. If you didn’t think of it in the first place, it would not be a subject to explore. And if you had never read the ‘great texts’ of the humans, but had the thought about doing the action, would you still think it was sinful? Couldn’t you still make a decision to not ‘do it’ even if the thought had crossed the mind – possibly because the subject which drew the thought didn’t respond in kind? Or because, after getting your face slapped a few times, you learned something about the subject – rather than about ‘sin’?

            No one told 850,000 Jews from Arab countries like Lebanon to suddenly come to Israel btw, they were persecuted and most deported from their homes following the 1948 war. They wouldnt even wish their enemy to return to these apartheid countries.

            I agree with you wholeheartedly except for having a Jewish identity. For IF the Arab population of Israel one day becomes a majority then what? In Lebanon they were never kicked out. They left because of the civil war as did many people including myself. All this propaganda is nonsense… There MUST be a solution to the entire area and it MUST be secular and INCLUSIVE. This stupidity of the land is mine and this land was given to me by God is a tired argument specially that no record but the Jewish bible describes the stories therein. NOT even ONE record in Egypt that they were ever there or EVER crossed into Palestine and the Egyptians wrote profusely on their walls 😉

            The ONLY mention is of the “sea people” and a war with the Hittites which incidentally never made it into Jewish writings as they were nomadic tribes as many other tribes moving around between Mesopotamia and the Mediterranean sea. All the rest is pure Mythology…

            Hannibal … ended up with History in there … but love WIKI, for the shortest facts.
            Amazing how so few people are ‘controlling’ the world, isn’t it?? :-))))

            The history of Israel encompasses the history of the modern State of Israel, as well as that of the Jews in the Land of Israel. The area of modern Israel is small, about the size of Wales or half the size of Costa Rica, and is located roughly on the site of the ancient kingdoms of Israel and Judah except that these ancient kingdoms also included what is now the West Bank. It is the birthplace of the Hebrew language spoken in Israel, and of Judaism and Christianity. It contains sites sacred to Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Druze and Bahá’í Faith.

            Although coming under the sway of various empires and home to a variety of ethnicities, the area of ancient Israel was predominantly Jewish until the Jewish–Roman wars after which Jews became a minority in most regions, except Galilee. The area became increasingly Christian after the 3rd century and then largely Muslim from the 7th century conquest until well past the middle of the 20th century. It was a focal point of conflict between Christianity and Islam between 1096 and 1291, and from the end of the Crusades until the British conquest in 1917 was part of the Syrian province of first the Mamluk Sultanate of Egypt and then (from 1517) the Ottoman Empire.

            In the late-19th century, persecution of Jews, particularly in Europe, led to the creation of the Zionist movement. Following the British conquest of Syria, the Balfour Declaration in World War I and the formation of the Mandate of Palestine, Aliyah (Jewish immigration to the Land of Israel) increased and gave rise to Arab–Jewish tensions, and a collision of the Arab and Jewish nationalist movements. Israeli independence in 1948 was marked by massive migration of Jews from both Europe and the Muslim countries to Israel, and of Arabs from Israel leading to the extensive Arab–Israeli conflict.[1] About 42% of the world’s Jews live in Israel today.

            Since about 1970, the United States has become the principal ally of Israel. In 1979 an uneasy Egypt–Israel Peace Treaty was signed, based on the Camp David Accords. In 1993 Israel signed Oslo I Accord with the Palestine Liberation Organization and in 1994 Israel–Jordan Treaty of Peace was signed. Despite efforts to establish peace between Israel and Palestinians, many of whom live in Israel or in Israeli-occupied territories, the conflict continues to play a major role in Israeli and international political, social and economic life.

            The economy of Israel was initially primarily socialist and the country dominated by social democratic parties until the 1970s. Since then the Israeli economy has gradually moved to capitalism and a free market economy, partially retaining the social welfare system.

            There is no law or anything in Israel claiming that the land was given by God. Many religious Jews speak of this only from a symbolic point of view, but thats where it stops. Many Jews in Israel, including Ben Gurion who was the first Prime Minister are atheists. Even the first zionists like Hertzel were atheists and secular. I just dont see why asking the British for a state in territories where they were a majority anyway (even east Jerusalem before 1948 had majority Jews) is expected to have some religious justification.

            lol, name a single country that doesnt b-tch about territory and land, hasnt went through wars. We saw Thatcher going to war with Argentina over an island thousands of miles away from the UK. There’s disputes over an island between China and Japan. Alsace-Lorraine being annexed by France and Germany like 5 times within 50 years. Northern Cyprus being in dispute between Turks and Greeks. etc etc. Why is Israel a special situation? As for demographics, countries like France or Germany would never ever let muslims immigrate there if their local population wasnt in the several millions. Unlike Israel we never hear the UK whining about demographics, but lets bear in mind muslims in the UK are like 1.7% of the population while in Israel we’re talking about 25% already, with the Arab population going to over 50% if Areas A and B of the West Bank are annexed or the foreign born 5 million so-called “refugees” walk in.

            cookie, No one forced Jews to leave. They left on their own wishing to live in a jewish state and all the one I know regretted it as they left Israel within a year or two.
            I recently attended a weeding of a Jewish friend in NYC, during the reception I felt I was in a Lebanese wedding. Nothing Israeli about it, the music, the band, the alcohol, the food were all Lebanese. The only thing was the chicks were not as hot as the Lebanese ones but after few drinks they looked fine…..

            Well 50% of the Israeli population today is Middle Eastern Jews, so it doesnt seem like that many left afterall. Lebanon is obviously a milder case, but with more or less every other Arabic country they had their property confiscated and deported. Not all of them went to Israel, and the point here being that the ones that did come to Israel werent necessarily zionists who unless deported would have wanted a state.

            Correct, in the sense that ‘blaspheme’ only refers to God(s) or sacred things.
            Although, why any human, prophet or not, spinning in a grave would be blaspheming is a bit of a stretch … you would need to believe the prophet was the god in this case.
            The word is from the Greek ‘blasphemos’ – evil speaking. (Maybe the oil is evil?)
            Hannibal doesn’t say he doesn’t believe in God, just not ‘organized religions’. If he says ‘There’s no God’, then that would be blasphemy … to the ears, actually. 😉

            When you translate direclly from French it does not always come out with the same meaning.

            Let me be clear i believe there are moderates and extremists in every religion
            and by no means i claim all Sunni are extremists, i fail to see beheading a
            human being as a religious act while praising AllahuAkbar believing God wants this..(it’s apostasy). And for the record i don’t believe all Jews are bad and Assad is an angel, but my concern all along as with many others is that although the original desire for democracy in Syria was native to Syrians, it quickly got hijacked by violent extremists in documented horrific beheading- i have never seen in my life before – and those groups that i fear with good reason make feel as imperfect Assad is, they are likely to be much much worst for the whole region if they achieve their own agenda, that is not nessecarily that of the original Syrian protesters.

            You truly are a great man. It takes a real man to have the integrity to apologise. I just wish others on here who claim to be men could follow from your example. I’m running short on time atm but will endeavour to answer ur other comment as soon as time permits. For now have a good day/night. Xx

            One must assume he was capable of some sort of good dinner speeches, even from a cave, and possibly humour as well, since no-one can stay awake through religious diatribes and purely political drum-thumping. He had to have some good moments as a politician – as well as good propaganda to become ‘El Supremo’s ‘resistance’. I did note the women sort of gasp, and a lowered applause level, when said he could snap his fingers and ‘we’ could produce another 50,000 shiites in a year. It wasn’t the best comedy-line, perhaps.
            The goose-stepping arrow and bombs at the end kind of kills the entertainment.

            I will always support the resistance no matter the alliance with Aoun. I supported them way before Aoun came back and will always support them. I will stop supporting them if they ever start kidnapping and killing innocent people based on religion which I doubt they will ever do. No matter what happens I do have a very soft spot for Shia in general.

            Bitterness,ignorance,and stubbornness are the basic ingredients for misery and disaster . Don’t let these cheap shots bother you,and don’t give them the satisfaction they so desperately seek. Just wish them well because there is nothing darker than ignorance,and they may never know.Thank you.

            Prophettttt, allow me to answer you this way, I live with three beautiful ladies whom they are the love of my life, the center of my world, I cherish and respect more than anything, you can imagine (Libnan1 don’t get any ideas, they are my wife and my two daughters), I always lose with them, they are more emotional than reasonable.
            I am pretty mellow guy but you can’t always sit back and take it, sometimes you need to give someone a little of their own medicine, may be Barbie got under my skin a little, and my reaction true or not came from the the common sayings that I heard a lot growing up and I am translating them as such “if you can’t fight at least stare back, a kilogram needs kilogram and a half” . I think you get the picture……
            I feel so sorry for people like this who bottle up so much hate and it burdens them to the point of exhaustion and clouds their brains, It takes much less energy to be loving, caring and happy. No worry buddy, hang loose…

    I’d vote geagea before aoun anyday of the Week, but why are the choices so limited? Surely there is a friendlier face in these parties that can help in moving forward. The same old faces only cements the same old opinions, and those opinions are not positive in moving forward.

    What a huge error from the Future Movement to back Geagea. Although I agree with the guy with his political views in the last few years, but I would never support him for President because of his criminal past and “hunger” for power at any cost that the Christian society in Lebanon has paid dearly for. Yes we need a strong CLEAN president, but not any strong president. How about Carlos Edde ? Very clean, very educated, very patriotic.

    The Lebanese have exported their crooked politicians to Sydney

    “Mr Brook told the inquiry the Obeids thought they ran NSW and were looking at a privatisation deal which would make a fortune.”

    “Mr Brook told the ICAC on Tuesday he got to know Moses Obeid while
    working on a coal deal at Mount Penny in the NSW Hunter region – a deal
    the watchdog has already branded corrupt in a separate inquiry.

    “Moses said that he and his family had an ownership in Australian
    Water (Holdings) and that they had great influence over it,” Mr Brook
    recalled in a written statement.

    “The company was looking into a privatisation deal where they could effectively control all of Sydney’s
    water. Moses said, ‘We are going to make a fortune out of it’.”

    Mr Brook told the commission a payoff of $100 million was mentioned.

    Mr Brook said he met with the two Obeids and and former Labor MP Joe
    Tripodi in August 2008 in Elizabeth Bay, where the men canvassed selling
    off NSW electricity assets and Moses repeatedly declared “this
    conversation’s not happening”.”
