Israel's War In Lebanon: Eyewitness Chronicles Of The 1982 Invasion And Occupation

Israel’s War in Lebanon: Eyewitness Chronicles of the Invasion and Occupation is the result of a US Congressional staff delegation inquiry during the summer of 1982 in Lebanon. It was presented to all members of the US Congress as a fact finding report with recommendations.This volume presents eyewitness reports and analyses of dozens of doctors, human rights observers and journalists, as well as many victims of the carnage in Lebanon during the three month war, an event that has shaped the Middle East until today. The Israeli atrocities committed during the summer of 1982 in Lebanon left a grim legacy of suffering, destruction and violence. Israel’s War in Lebanon painstakingly presents the record of fact-finders who presented testimony at various international conferences, quasi-judicial proceedings, and commissions of inquiry between 1982-84, including the venues of Nicosia, Cyprus, Athens, Rome, Brussels, Oslo, Stockholm, London, Paris, Geneva, Tokyo, Florence, and Palermo, all attended by Franklin Lamb.Among the protests of the international community have been condemnations of Israel by the United Nations, by the Human Rights Commission, and by the Economic and Social Council for violations of the U.N. Charter, rules of international law, and of the Geneva Conventions. This volume makes the case that many specific acts by Israeli forces during the course of the invasion and occupation are war crimes and crimes against humanity. Israel’s War in Lebanon: Eyewitness Chronicles of the Invasion and Occupation presents analyses which provide vivid and compelling accounts of horrifying events that western opinion is eager to forget. The direct report here teaches us something different, and more truthful about our values, as they apply in practice today during the current maelstrom sweeping the Middle East.
