Marada Movement leader and former cabinet minister Suleiman Franjieh launched a fresh attack against Maronite Patriarch Nasrallah Sfeir, accusing him this time of "distorting facts and exercising favoritism."
Franjieh also accused Sfeir of working against Christian interests in Lebanon and acting upon the orders of external powers. "The truth of the matter is that you will do whatever the West tells you to do," Franjieh said in a statement on Thursday. "If they (West) tell you become friends with Syria, you will do so and the moment the West changes its stand regarding Syria, you change yours too," Franjieh said. He accused Sfeir of turning the church into a "home for thieves and criminals." Last month, Franjieh said the Patriarch was acting as an employee for the U.S. and French embassies. He urged him to resign "because archbishops who reach the age of 74 are asked to quit." Franjieh, also in January, accused Sfeir of working as a "cover for a critical scheme." "Statements by Bkirki and the archbishops are not less decent than those (made) by some politicians who are known for their street talk," the Marada Movement leader said. |
