Ba'dna taybin...oul allah!

   


Recordings from the satirical radio show by Ziad el Rahbani featured on the Sanaya (West Beirut) transmitter of Radio Lebanon during the early years of the civil war. (1975-78) These sketches are a series of courageous, forthright and candid views on various aspects of the war. Both dramatic and humorous, they are acutely perceptive and free of political inhibitions and as such tell the story of the war up until the Israeli invasion with little necessary supportive documentation.

 

     
 

el 3a2el zineh

   

Radio show featured by Ziad, 3abbes, Salma, Rola. It was broadcasted in the late months of the civil war, when it was a very hard situation specially in Beirut, and which was shown well through this program.  Ziad expressed many of his own experiences with women and events or thoughts he passed by through the war period, so its a good piece to listen to.

His newest public appearance was on Sawt el Sha3b presenting a simple analysis in a sarcastic way of the current lebanese situation. The propaganda behind "14 march movement" and the "war on terror" were the main subjects. He also pointed at some "revolutionary leaders" like Nayla Maawad and Elias Atallah.
