Israel and Lebanon: History and Analysis By Aaron Dusso Introduction The scenario as it has been presented requires several things. One of these is a detailed history of how and why Israel is in Lebanon in the first place. This task has fallen upon my shoulders and forms the majority of what follows and historical analysis will make up the remainder. This history will not, however, bring us to the present day because the task of handling Israel’s part in this scenario has proved so daunting that two persons have been given the responsibility of covering the Israeli element. Therefore, present day activities and those which must occur in order to bring the future scenario to fruition will be covered in the paper which follows. History On 6 June 1982 Israel invaded Lebanon and has been there ever since. The final pretext for the invasion was provided just three days before with the near fatal shooting of Shlomo Argov, Israel’s ambassador to London. Israel originally claimed that it invaded in order to stop the raids into Israel territory which were staged from southern Lebanon. With Israel’s siege of Beirut, it became clear that Israel’s main goal was to remove the PLO presence from all of Lebanon. The invasion of June, however, was not the first time that Israel had conducted military strikes against Lebanon. Israel, in years prior to 1982, had responded to PLO rocket attacks, which were staged in southern Lebanon’s territory, by bombing Palestinian refugee camps. So in order to understand how and why Israel came to be in Lebanon we must begin many, many years before the invasion. This way, we will be able to have a full appreciation of the Lebanon / Israel situation.

Mount Lebanon Shaker Village Our History In August of 2002, the Shaker Museum and Library Board of Directors cast the historic vote to implement the master Plan, developed by architects Cooper, Robertson and Partners, to construct a museum within the shell of the Great Stone Barn at the North Family site. The Great Stone Barn was the largest stone barn in America. Ravaged by a devastating fire some thirty years ago, all that remains of this remarkable structure is the masonry shell. It is our hope that we can reclaim and rehabilitate this national treasure as the new home of the Mount Lebanon Shaker Village . This timely action will accomplish several goals: The salvation and rehabilitation of the Great Stone Barn and eventually, the other endangered structures. The long-term preservation of America's most significant collection of Shaker objects, which includes over 15,000 artifacts and 20,000 archival items. Reunification of these artifacts with their orginal home, 80% of these objects originally came from the Mount Lebanon site.

In ancient times, north-south movement along the plain was nearly impossible. Villages developed on larger sections of the plain, and those with good harbors and better agricultural areas evolved into the city-states of Phoenicia.

King Saul established the first Hebrew state, the Kingdom of Israel, in the region of Palestine in the 11th century bc. Saul’s successors, David and Solomon, further consolidated the kingdom. The southern part soon became the independent kingdom of Judah. When both kingdoms were defeated by the 6th century bc, most Jews were exiled from Palestine. The desire of the exiled Jews, known collectively as the Diaspora, to return to their historical homeland is recorded in the Bible and became a universal Jewish theme after Roman rulers destroyed the ancient city of Jerusalem in ad 70. deeper links The British Mandate Period Independence and War The Postwar Period The Suez Crisis ...

Saida - H istory Saida (Sidon), ancient Sidouna, one of the famous names in ancient history, was an open city with many cultural influences, including the Egyptian Pharaohs and the Greeks. Of all of Lebanon's cities this is the most mysterious, for its past has been tragically scattered and plundered. The city is located on the eastern Mediterranean shoreline in the Republic of Lebanon, 30 miles south of the capital Beirut. As most Phoenician cities, Saida was built on a hill facing an island, which sheltered its fleet, and provided refuge from inland invaders. Sidon was the wealthiest and most entrepreneurial of all ancient Phoenician cities. Its large-scale glass production was such that the invention of glass -known to be Phoenician- is often attributed to the Sidonians. Saida is of immense antiquity, but few remains of the ancient city have survived the ravages of time. There is evidence that Saida was inhabited as long ago as 4000 B.C., and perhaps even earlier in Neolithic times. Its aggressive commercial nature placed it as the city of choice for obtaining the Royal Purple Dye, or to commission ships and crews to furnish naval fleets.

Tirpoli - H istory the city lies 85 kilometres north of Beirut and has a special character all its own. Thanks to its historical wealth, relaxed lifestyle and thriving business climate, this is a city where modern and medieval blend easily into a lively and hospitable metropolis. Habitation of the site of Tripoli goes back to at least the 14 th century BC, but it wasn't until about the 9 th century BC that the Phoenicians established a small trading station there. Under the successors of Alexander the Great during the Hellenistic period, Tripoli was used as a naval shipyard. There is also evidence that it enjoyed a period of autonomy at the end of Seleucid era. Under Roman rule, starting with the take-over of the area by Pompey in 64-63 BC, the city flourished. During this period the Romans built several monuments in the city. Earthquake and tidal wave destroyed the Byzantine city of Tripoli in 551. After 635 Tripoli became a commercial and shipbuilding centre under the Omayyads. It achieved semi-independence under the Fatimid Dynasty when it developed into a centre of learning.

CHURCH ERECTED 1868 BURNED 1898 REBUILT 1898 The cornerstone of the First United Church of Lebanon, 603 West St Louis St., Lebanon, Il, bears the above inscription. Construction of the first building at this location was begun in 1867, and the church was dedicated in 1872. Methodism in Lebanon, however, pre-dates 1868 by at least 45 years. According to the McKendree College Centennial History, 1828, which quotes an old quarterly conference record, a Methodist preaching place was established in Lebanon in 1823. In 1852 the Methodists built their first building in Lebanon, a brick structure costing $7,500. A fire in Dec. 1860 left the congregation again without a home of its own, and meetings were held for the most part in McKendree's new chapel until 1867. A new building was opened in 1868 on our present location. Membership at that time was about 200. This tall-spired church building also burned on Sunday morning, April 3, 1898. Plans were made immediately for a new building which was quickly constructed at a cost of $10,000 and was dedicated, debt free, on Sunday, Dec. 4, 1898. The Methodist congregation in Lebanon continues to worship in a building that is now over 100 years old. The perseverance and faith of our forefathers has made this church a "Family of God" looking forward to an everlasting presence in our city of Lebanon.

Community Nestled in the Connecticut River Valley midway up state, Lebanon, New Hampshire, is a healthy and thriving community that enjoys both the quiet everyday living of rural life, and the cultural experience of the big city. Appearing more than once in Prentice Hall's The 100 best Small Towns in America, a Nationwide Guide to the Best in Small Town Living, often in the top four, Lebanon's 12,568 residents are living testimonials that this recognition is richly deserved. Welcome to the Crossroads of New England. History King George III of England formally signed the Charter for the Town of Lebanon on July 4, 1761, and colonists began settling the area almost immediately. With such easy access to the Connecticut River and the smaller Mascoma River, Lebanon provided the perfect location for transporting the resources necessary for running mills; textiles manufacturing became an obvious source of commerce. With the evolution of the railroads along the waterways and their direct route to Boston, the textile trade positively flourished, becoming Lebanon's greatest source for employment; the rail industry itself served as a close second. Textiles manufacturing continued to be Lebanon's primary employer until the 1950's. At that time, foreign imports and a change in the nation's economy forced Lebanon to turn from the faltering mills and railroads to cleaner industries with their advanced technologies. As a result, Lebanon is now home to software companies, high-tech research facilities and manufacturers, and state-of-the-art medical facility, a nationally acclaimed cancer center, and the most advanced plasma-cutting technology company in the world.
