Lebanese elections billboard wars – 2

On the road to any area in Lebanon you will notice dozens of billboards promoting the different parties or candidates running for the election. And on my way to Saida yesterday I saw the following ones.

haraket-amal

That’s Nabih Berri on the left. Barri is trying to be original and is NOT imitating Barack Obama’s photos. Anyway, Nabih Berri is promoting unity between the muslims and the christians. 3a aseis ino noss Haraket Amal hinneh masi7iyyeh 😀 I’ll take hat as Berri being funny.

kawass

I dunno who that guy is, but the slogan is strong. Minimum ykoun shababouna la youstahan bihi! They did great in May 7th last year, and just today they killed 4 army soldiers.

hariri

The Future Movement is reminding us once again that they have not forgot their loss. Nothing new here, they’ve been making their followers live in an ongoing funeral for 4 years now! Min wein baddon yinso??

tayyar

… aw Orange Orange!

lf

Ok I’m convinced, and the Lebanese Forces followers are all civilized, I’ll keep it in my mind!

amal-kids

Last but not least, Haraket Amal is presenting to us the upcoming generation who will soon be roaming the streets with their motorcycles hinneh w 2eibbina. The ones who are currently “3am y2ibbouwa” will eventually become “kaweidir haraket amal”.

Walid Jounblat interview with Playboy

playboy-july-19841

Believe it or not, Playboy interviewed Walid Jounblat in their July 1984 issue! But no he did not appear naked (did I disppoint you?).

I’ve seen the cover a while ago and was checking if I can read the interview somewhere online, until I found it on the Ouwet blog.

For those of you who are interested, I’m publishing a scanned copy of the interview originally downloaded from the Ouwet blog by N10452. You must have plenty of free time in hand since it’s a long interview!

P.S: I think it would be nice if the parliamentary candidates for 2009 published their electoral program in the next issue of Playboy, that includes Hizbullah, Al-A7bash & Al-Jama3a Al-Islamiyya candidates.
