It was a complex situation and trying to say Palestinians were the only cause of it is overly reductive. Israel played just as large of a role in that civil war too.
Also my turn for what? Answering something I never said? You said everyone hates them. I said the Arab and Muslim communities do support them. Go look up any polling on it. Their leaders might not, like I said, but that does not mean the communities don’t also.
- lazide 3y agoThe PLO actively destabilized Lebanon to turn it into their main staging area. Israel just ended up evicting them after they kept using it to attack them. Those two are not the same thing. How is the weather on the West Bank? I’m still waiting for those cites!
- enterprise_cog 3y agoPLO had a right to operate out of Lebanon. They were using it to try and evict the Israelis from their land. I also never said they were the same thing, just that they shared equal responsibility for that civil war happening. Like I said, if Israel hadn’t stolen the land, the PLO wouldn’t exist or operate out of Lebanon. So they are as culpable. Maybe try and comprehend instead of arguing strawmen.
