@kocktoe

israel is an illegal entity? a majority of 160 and something countries woted for the existance of israel in 1948 and israel is a country that a member in UN since then. israel is a fully democratic country with no death penalty and a very good justice system, unlike the all the other arab countries where you can be executed for beign gay, stealing or if your a woman than put to death for cheating, in a public square. in israel everybody is equal infront of the law even the enemies

@Sextorator Why blame Israel ? becasue they are to blame. They had control of the camp and conspired in this massacre, the Israeli even said Sharon is to blame, Israel is an illegal entity occupying Arab land they must be destroyed and the land must be liberated.

i didnt say israel wasnt responsible somehow for the massacre i was saying that these massacres were daily occurance between labanonese people. and most of them were with much highers casualties. the thing is people made it look like its the big massacre of the war that israel made. but the arabs massacred each other daily and nothing was heard of it until israel was involved...people should understand massacre would happen in labanon with or without israel being there

@Sextorator 3 - ...calling for the military to refrain from interference in the massacres. On that day after meetings between the Phalangist staff and Israeli military officials, the Israeli Chief of staff concluded that the Phalangists must continue their operation in mopping up empty camps south of Fakahani until 5 am on September 18 where they had to stop out of Israeli fears of US pressure. Just read the Kahan Commission to find out more. But its ok if you want to ignore reality completely.

@Sextorator 2 - ...essentially stated that up to 300 people including civilians had been murdered in the camps. The report was later forwarded to the IDF HQ in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem where it was seen by over 20 Israeli senior military officials, but of course eliciting nothing more than a yawn from them. The Kahan Commission also cited Lieutenant Avi Grabowsky who on September 17 issued a statement to the battalion commander after having witnessed the deaths of 5 women and children explicitly..

[alien1tau9]

@Sextorator Yes they did issue guidelines regarding entry into the camps, not to mention falsified information that Gemayel had been assassinated by the PLO. Even if the IDF was somehow not responsible for the entry of the Phalangists into the camps in full consciousness of the devastating consequences the IDF received reports of the massacres as they were occurring but refused to initiate any action to stop them. On September 16 at 11 pm a report was circulated to IDF HQ in East Beirut which...

@alien1tau9

you should learn about the other massacres that were much worse than sabra and shatila.

the IDF didnt give them guidelines on how to kill ceviliens only about the tarain and where the PLO is located.

the killing cevilians was all the choice of the phalangists, and the phalangists werent new to massacres they commited a lot of other massacres much before the IDF was in lebanon.

the lebanonise people have a rich history of killing each other in massacres why blame it on the IDF

[alien1tau9]

@Sextorator What complete nonsense. Sharon and Eitan prior to the massacre initiated meetings with the Phalangist militia staff, and informed them that the PLO was to blame for Bashir Gemayel's assassination - a fabrication of course. Israel supplied the Phalangists with jeeps to facilitate entry into the camps and Israel invited them in and issued guidelines to the militiamen on how to enter the camps. Israel even sent illuminating flares into the air to aid them in massacring civilians.
