Re: I Bring the Sword: Israeli Marines Beach Assault
Sharon's plan was to install and support a Christian government and remove the PLO from Lebanon. And then sign a peace treaty with Lebanon strengthening Israel and weakening Syria. The only part that worked was getting the PLO out. They did fight by the way, Israel lost some 600 men in that conflict. My father was nearly killed. I have pictures of him on the landing craft on the way to the beach landing.
