Today Israeli politicians should pause and reflect and what happened then. Israeli military strongman General Ariel Sharon, and who led the Israeli invasion stood by and watched the Israeli Phalangist butcher the people where about 3000 people were killed.

The late Robert Fisk, one of the first journalist to enter the camp one day after the massacre paints a horrifying pictures of what he had seen. In his Pity The Nation book on Lebanon he says he found himself clutching limbs which the Christian terrorists tried to hide by hastily burying.
Waw LOL. The main character is really named Sabra??? Hence Sabra & Shatila massacre in ‘82: when over 3000 Palestinian refugees were killed by so-called “Lebanese right wing forces”. Leaked docs have shown what we knew all along, the whole operation was driven by Israeli mossad. https://t.co/vFx3jbWjky

Today the massacre is being remembered with disdain, horror and utterly disbelief while Israelis try to hide what they've done.
Every year on the anniversary of the Sabra and Shatila massacres or the Deir Yassin massacre, I feel like I'm at a loss for words. all I have to say is that the imperial core and its zionist proxy and the international zionist lobby must be dismantled by any means necessary.
