Habib: "Haig was lying. Sharon was lying." US/French/PLO negotiators all knew 1982 path led to tragedy. Warnings ignored. Guarantees abandoned. Civilians exposed. Regret without accountability is just another form of silence. #DiplomaticBetrayal #SankofaArchive
1982 Lebanon War: Beirut became first Arab capital Israel occupied. Media broadcast civilian suffering; propaganda couldn't erase it. Israel's positive Western image cracked for first time since '48. Peace Now surged. Documentation defeats narrative. #MediaAndWar #SankofaArchive
Khalidi: 1982 Lebanon invasion = first joint US-Israeli war on Palestinians. US supplied arms, coerced PLO exit, gave worthless protection promises. Like Britain in the 1930s—but Israel led, US enabled. When "ally" means "accessory," complicity is invoiced. #USComplicity #SankofaArchive
