Uprooted Palestinians are at the heart of the conflict in the M.E Palestinians uprooted by force of arms. Yet faced immense difficulties have survived, kept alive their history and culture, passed keys of family homes in occupied Palestine from one generation to the next.
Former Lebanese Prime Minister Fouad Siniora was questioned by a state prosecutor on Thursday over how $11 billion in state funds was spent while he was in power.
His office, however, issued a statement claiming the spending was entirely legal.
It was the first time a former Lebanese prime minister had been summoned for such questioning, and it follows protests against a ruling elite that is widely accused of state corruption.
Opponents of Siniora, who was prime minister from 2005 until 2008 and had two spells as finance minister, emphasize that $11 billion in government funds was unaccounted for while he was in power.
But in its statement, Siniora’s office claimed he had explained to the financial public prosecutor where the money was spent and that is was used in meeting state needs.
Meanwhile, dozens of protesters gathered outside Siniora’s home in Beirut and outside his office in the southern city of Sidon, chanting and waving Lebanese flags, Reuters television reported.
يلاحق شبح الـ “11 مليار” رئيس الحكومة السابق فؤاد السنيورة على المستويين القضائي والشعبي.بعد أن استمع المدعي العام المالي القاضي علي ابراهيم إلى السنيورة في الدعوى المقدمة ضده بشأن قضية الـ11 مليار دولار، تداعى شباب الحراك الشعبي إلى محاسبته لكن على طريقتهم.
فقد تظاهر عدد من المحتجين اليوم الخميس أمام منزل فؤاد السنيورة في شارع بليس بالحمرا، مطالبين باستعادة الأموال المنهوبة ومحاسبة كل الفاسدين، لينضم إليهم لاحقًا عدد من مناصري التيار الوطني الحر، في مشهد وصفه موقع “التيار” بأنه ينطلق من دعوة فخامة الرئيس ميشال عون لتوحيد الساحات.
ومن الحمرا انتقل المحتجون إلى أمام منزل وزير الاتصالات في حكومة تصريف الأعمال محمد شقير.
وفي صيدا أيضاً تجمّع عدد كبير من المحتجين أمام مكتب السنيورة مطالبين بالكشف عن الأموال المنهوبة وإعادتها للدولة اللبنانية.
كذلك اجتمع المحتجون أمام منزل وزير الداخلية السابق نهاد المشنوق في قريطم، مطالبين عبر مكبرات الصوت باستعادة الأموال المنهوبة، ورددوا شعار “وين الـ ١٠٠ مليون دولار يا حرامي”.
هذا، وقد أطلق الناشطون على مواقع التواصل الاجتماعي هاشتاغ “#مش_بس_11مليار” مطالبين بمحاسبة السنيورة على كافة الملفات ابتداءً من تاريخ توليه وزارة المالية في العام 1992 حتى يومنا هذا.
