Aoun: “No one can come and tell me ‘I don’t want you’ ”

Share:

aoun geageaFree Patriotic Movement leader MP Michel Aoun told al-Akhbar daily in an interview published on Thursday that he would hold unconditional talks with his rival Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea when he returns from his visit to Saudi Arabia but refused to give up his candidacy for the presidential poststressing that no one can tell him “I don’t want you”.

Aoun, 81 who heads the Change and Reform parliamentary bloc, did not confirm whether the talks between him and Geagea have an agenda.

“I will tell him what I’ve got if we meet,” the former general  said.

The MP hoped that the differences between the rival Christian parties on the presidential post would dissipate when the meeting between him and Geagea takes place.

“We will definitely deal with the presidential file but it will be one of the topics” of discussion, he stated.

Asked whether he and Geagea could agree on a third candidate to fill the vacuum at Baabda Palace, Aoun said: “No one can come and tell me ‘I don’t want you’.”

“We could disagree on the presidency but agree on other things,” he said.

“I am a candidate and I will not vote for anyone or give up (my candidacy) to anyone,” he stressed.

“I will not approve any president for many reasons,” Aoun said. “I want a Republic and not president.”

“I don’t want a Republic without a Constitution, laws and institutions,” he added.

Aoun accused the March 14 alliance of paralyzingly the presidential elections, saying it wants to “impose” a president on the rest of the Lebanese.

The Lebanese parliament failed on Dec 10 and and for the 16th time in a row to elect a president to replace Michel Suleiman whose term ended on May 25.

As in the past sessions the parliament was unable to reach a quorum because the Iranian backed Hezbollah militant group and Aoun’s Change and Reform bloc MPs boycotted the sessions.

      Are we reading this right??
      Republics have Presidents.
      Parliamentary Democracies have Prime Ministers.
      So, Preface that with ‘Confessional’ and you have Lebanon with both …. and already weird for that.
      But Aoun says: “I want a Republic and not president.” Doesn’t put his name up as a candidate. Blocks everyone from making a choice, because of an old ‘quorum’ rule. And now says he won’t give up a candidacy, which he didn’t stand up to say he would accept running for, like Geagea did.
      But now he says he is??
      And now it’s March14’s fault that the whole thing is long overdue to be decided by any kind of electoral process, and I guess their fault that the last election went into the dumper 6 months after it happened.
      Has ANYONE got a clear line of ‘reasoning’ on what Aoun WANTS??
      DOES HE ???

            Listen to Rabbi Schneerson, you’re a different specie, and non Jews are animals so bye bye

            “..the
            body of a Jewish person is of a totally different quality from the body
            of [members] of all nations of the world … The difference in the inner
            quality between Jews and non-Jews is “so great that the bodies should be
            considered as completely different species.”

            “An even greater difference exists in regard to the soul. Two
            contrary types of soul exist, a non-Jewish soul comes from three satanic
            spheres, while the Jewish soul stems from holiness.”

            “As has been explained, an embryo is called a human being, because it
            has both body and soul. Thus, the difference between a Jewish and a
            non-Jewish embryo can be understood.”

            “…the general difference between Jews and non-Jews: A Jew was not
            created as a means for some [other] purpose; he himself is the purpose,
            since the substance of all [divine] emanations was created only to serve
            the Jews.”

            “The important things are the Jews, because they do not exist for any [other] aim; they themselves are [the divine] aim.”

            “The entire creation [of a non-Jew] exists only for the sake of the Jews.”

            Try 1 oz. – On one small ice cube. Inhale it, before drinking.
            Ask for Glenfiddich 15-yr. … or 18 … If they only have 12, act dissappointed. But say ok. 🙂
            (don’t ask for older … they ravage your purse for that)
            And I agree that wine doesn’t always go down well.

            It’s no gain to waste all this pain.

            A disgrace to always hide this face behind someone else’s picture.

            My mind is lame, and it’s a shame, to feel so numb and be dumb.

            I hate to say life’s not always been this way.

            It’s an outrage that I ever lived outside this cage.

            Apathy works best for me.

            Cold-hearted to myself, the cheaply departed.

            Sadness makes me the happiest.

            My loneliness makes me feel so blessed.

            This bitter resentment fills me with contentment.

            My biggest folly ever was delaying this melancholy.

            However this ailment is reaching my fulfillment,

            Leaving me empty, sad, happy and whole.

            My bitterness is such bliss.

            A feeling that I would surely miss.

            I often lament evading this torment.

            This suffering is the greatest thing ever.

            I frequently regret never being upset.

            Now I daily look forward to the sorrow that’s promised by tomorrow, and I pray it comes each and everyday.

            Without its displeasure I cannot carry on, for it is my greatest treasure.

    “Aoun accused the March 14 alliance of paralyzingly the presidential elections, saying it wants to “impose” a president on the rest of the Lebanese.”

    If this is true this is by far one of the dumbest and most ignorant comments Aoun has said in his life. He accuses M14, the bloc who has been calling for a consensus candidate since no current candidate can be agreed on, on imposing a president on Lebanon, in a speech where he is imposing his presidency on Lebanon. The saddest part is some people treat his words like gold.

    1. 5thDrawer Avatar

      Actually people could go and say ‘We don’t want you’. Problem is, he wouldn’t hear that.
      I’d put Faour in along with a few other young guys. At least he cares what people eat.

  4. Strange !!!!!
    If it took Aoun that many years to figure out he is not wanted , then there must be something drastically wrong with him and he should not be a president .
    Lebanese do not want a dummy for a president … he should know this by now
