Sabra and Shatila Massacre: Beirut Refugee Camps, September 16-18, 1982
Between September 16 and 18, 1982, amid the Lebanese civil war, the Sabra and Shatila massacre occurred in southwest Beirut, Lebanon. In the days following the assassination of Lebanese president-elect Bashir Gemayel, members of the Phalangist militia, a Lebanese Christian force allied with Israel, entered the Sabra neighborhood and neighboring Shatila Palestinian refugee camp, killing civilians for about a day and a half. Israeli forces controlled the camps' perimeter. Death estimates run from several hundred to more than 3,000, with no definitive total established. In 1983, Israel's Kahan Commission found the state indirectly responsible and held Defense Minister Ariel Sharon personally responsible for not preventing the killings; he resigned from that position.

Hey, man, this was the 80's. That's how everybody rolled in the 80's. War was still war back then. It wasn't until 1991 that the United States changed everything and now limited war is in vogue. Fucking stupid if you ask me.
