  • The Israeli Experience in Lebanon, 1982-1985
    THE ISRAELI EXPERIENCE IN LEBANON, 1982-1985 Major George C. Solley Marine Corps Command and Staff College Marine Corps Development and Education Command Quantico, Virginia 10 May 1987 ABSTRACT Author: Solley, George C., Major, USMC Title: Israel's Lebanon War, 1982-1985 Date: 16 February 1987 On 6 June 1982, the armed forces of Israel invaded Lebanon in a campaign which, although initially perceived as limited in purpose, scope, and duration, would become the longest and most controversial military action in Israel's history. Operation Peace for Galilee was launched to meet five national strategy goals: (1) eliminate the PLO threat to Israel's northern border; (2) destroy the PLO infrastructure in Lebanon; (3) remove Syrian military presence in the Bekaa Valley and reduce its influence in Lebanon; (4) create a stable Lebanese government; and (5) therefore strengthen Israel's position in the West Bank. This study examines Israel's experience in Lebanon from the growth of a significant PLO threat during the 1970's to the present, concentrating on the events from the initial Israeli invasion in June 1982 to the completion of the withdrawal in June 1985. In doing so, the study pays particular attention to three aspects of the war: military operations, strategic goals, and overall results. The examination of the Lebanon War lends itself to division into three parts. Part One recounts the background necessary for an understanding of the war's context -- the growth of PLO power in Lebanon, the internal power struggle in Lebanon during the long and continuing civil war, and Israeli involvement in Lebanon prior to 1982.

  • Uncontested Physical Features
    National Physical Master Plan of the Lebanese Territory Final Report I UNCONTESTED PHYSICAL FEATURES _____________________________________________________________________ DAR - IAURIF December 2005 L0215-RPT-13 REV 0 National Physical Master Plan of the Lebanese Territory I – Uncontested Physical Features Final Report CHAPTER I UNCONTESTED PHYSICAL FEATURES The basic choices adopted in the National Physical Master Plan of the Lebanese Territories (NPMPLT) are the result of a coherent analysis of two imperatives: − Physical data (constraints and advantages) that characterize the Lebanese territory; and − Challenges of the future, in terms of economic and social perspectives. The present chapter explains the imperatives followed by physical features. I.1 THE SIZE OF LEBANON AND ITS GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION The first unavoidable feature or reality of Lebanon is its small surface area. With less than 11000 km2, it is the second smallest country in the Middle East and the Arab World (after Bahrain). Its territory represents 1 / 1000th that of large countries such as the USA or Canada and 1 / 100th that of Egypt. Despite the fact that it is densely populated1, it is ranked 125th worldwide for its populations, with four million inhabitants2. Its well-known and exploited natural resources consist practically of water resources, soil and vegetation, as well as climate and landscapes. The small size of the country, its population density and the modesty of its natural resources generate a series of perennial consequences, the most important being the vital necessity for Lebanon to be open to the whole world in order to import resources and consumption goods on one hand, and export goods and services, on the other.

  • Lebanon Roads and Employment Project Frequently Asked Questions
    Lebanon Roads and Employment Project Frequently Asked Questions 1. What is the Roads and Employment Project (REP)? The Lebanon Roads and Employment Project (REP) is a US$200 million project that aims to improve transport connectivity along select paved road sections and create short-term jobs for the Lebanese and Syrians. The REP was approved by the World Bank (WB) Board of Executive Directors in February 2017 and ratified by the Lebanese Parliament in October 2018. The Project is co-financed by a US$45.4 million grant contribution from the Global Concessional Financing Facility (GCFF) which provides concessional financing to middle income countries hosting large numbers of refugees at rates usually reserved for the poorest countries. The project is implemented by the Council for Development and Reconstruction (CDR) in coordination with the Ministry of Public Works and Transport (MPWT), noting that all the roads under the REP are under the jurisdiction of the MPWT. In response to the devastating impact of the economic and financial crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic on the agriculture sector and food security, the project was restructured in March 2021: a third objective was added and a US$10 million reallocation approved to provide direct support to farmers engaged in crop and livestock production (Please refer to questions # 18 to 26) 2. What are the Components of the Roads and Employment Project? The REP originally had three components. Following its restructuring in March 2021, a fourth component was added to address the impact of the
