The Lebanese Civil War (Arabic:الحرب الأهلية اللبنانية - Al-Ḥarb al-Ahliyyah al-Libnāniyyah) was a multifaceted civil war in Lebanon, lasting from 1975 to 1990 and resulting in an estimated 120,000 fatalities. As of 2012, approximately 76,000 people remain displaced within Lebanon. There was also an exodus of almost one million people from Lebanon as a result of the war.
Before the war, Lebanon was multisectarian, with [[Sunni Islam|Sunnis Muslims] and Christians being the majorities on the coastal cities, Shia Muslims being mainly based in the south and the Beqaa to the east, with the mountain populations being in their majority Druze and Christian. The government of Lebanon had been run under a significant influence of the elites among the Maronite Christians. The link between politics and religion had been reinforced under the mandate of the French colonial powers from 1920 to 1943, and the parliamentary structure favored a leading position for the Christians. However, the country had a large Muslim population and many pan-Arabist and left-wing groups opposed the pro-western government. The establishment of the state of Israel and the displacement of a hundred thousand Palestinian refugees to Lebanon during the 1948 and 1967 exoduses contributed to shifting the demographic balance in favor of the Muslim population. The Cold War had a powerful disintegrative effect on Lebanon, which was closely linked to the polarization that preceded the 1958 political crisis, since Maronites sided with the West while leftist and pan-Arab groups sided with Soviet-aligned Arab countries.
The 1982 Lebanon War (Arabic:الاجتياح, Al-ijtiyāḥ, "the invasion"), (Hebrew:מלחמת לבנון הראשונה, Milhemet Levanon Harishona, "the first Lebanon war"), called Operation Peace for Galilee (Hebrew:מבצע שלום הגליל, or מבצע של"גMivtsa Shlom HaGalil or Mivtsa Sheleg) by Israel, and later known in Israel as the Lebanon War and First Lebanon War, began on 6 June 1982, when the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) invaded southern Lebanon, after repeated attacks and counter-attacks between the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) operating in southern Lebanon and the IDF which caused civilian casualties on both sides of the border. The military operation was launched after gunmen from Abu Nidal's organization attempted to assassinate Shlomo Argov, Israel's ambassador to the United Kingdom. Prime Minister Menachem Begin blamed Abu Nidal's enemy, the PLO, for the incident, and treated the incident as a casus belli for the invasion.
After attacking the PLO – as well as Syrian, leftist, and Muslim Lebanese forces – Israeli military, in cooperation with the Maronite allies and the self-proclaimed Free Lebanon State occupied southern Lebanon, eventually surrounding the PLO and elements of the Syrian army. Surrounded in West Beirut and subjected to heavy bombardment, the PLO forces and their allies negotiated passage from Lebanon with the aid of United States Special EnvoyPhilip Habib and the protection of international peacekeepers. The PLO, under the chairmanship of Yasser Arafat, had relocated its headquarters to Tripoli in June 1982. By expelling the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), removing Syrian influence over Lebanon, and installing a pro-Israeli Christian government led by Bachir Gemayel, Israel hoped to sign a treaty which Menachem Begin promised would give Israel "forty years of peace".
The Chilean Civil War of 1891, also known as Revolution of 1891 was an armed conflict between forces supporting Congress and forces supporting the sitting President, José Manuel Balmaceda. The war saw a confrontation between the Chilean Army and the Chilean Navy, which had sided with the president and the congress, respectively. This conflict ended with the defeat of the Chilean Army and the presidential forces and President Balmaceda committing suicide as a consequence. In Chilean historiography the war marks the end of the Liberal Republic and the beginning of the Parliamentary Era.
Causes
The Chilean civil war grew out of political disagreements between the president of Chile, José Manuel Balmaceda, and the Chilean congress. In 1889, the congress became distinctly hostile to the administration of President Balmaceda, and the political situation became serious, at times threatened to involve the country in civil war. According to usage and custom in Chile at the time, a minister could not remain in office unless supported by a majority in the chambers. Balmaceda found himself in the difficult position of being unable to appoint any ministers that could control a majority in the senate and chamber of deputies and at the same time be in accordance with his own views of the administration of public affairs. At this juncture, the president assumed that the constitution gave him the power of nominating and maintaining in office any ministers of his choice and that congress had no power to interfere.
The 1958 Lebanon crisis was a Lebanese political crisis caused by political and religious tensions in the country that included a U.S. military intervention. The intervention lasted around three months until President Camille Chamoun, who had requested the assistance, completed his term as president of Lebanon. American and Lebanese government forces successfully occupied the port and international airport of Beirut. The crisis over, the United States withdrew shortly after.
Background
In July 1958, Lebanon was threatened by a civil war between Maronite Christians and Muslims. Tensions with Egypt had escalated earlier in 1956 when pro-western PresidentCamille Chamoun, a Christian, did not break diplomatic relations with the Western powers that attacked Egypt during the Suez Crisis, angering Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser. These tensions were further increased when Chamoun showed closeness to the Baghdad Pact. Nasser felt that the pro-western Baghdad Pact posed a threat to Arab nationalism. As a response, Egypt and Syria united into the United Arab Republic (UAR). Lebanese SunniPrime MinisterRashid Karami supported Nasser in 1956 and 1958. Karami formed a national reconciliation government after the 1958 crisis ended.

🇱🇧 How the Holiday Inn became a symbol of the Lebanese Civil War | War Hotels
For over 40 years, the skeletal remains of the Holiday Inn have stood in central Beirut, a constant reminder of the devastating Lebanese Civil War from 1975 to 1990. The 26-storey hotel opened in 1974, at the height of Beirut's economic boom, when the city was still a glamorous, Middle East tourist destination. Its hotel district was "the playground for celebrities, politicians, diplomats and spies," according to political geographer Sara Fregonese.
However, all of that changed in 1975 when the war erupted. On one side, Lebanese right-wing parties backed by the United States, aimed to expel armed Palestinian groups from Lebanon. On the other were left-wing parties allied with Yasser Arafat's Palestine Liberation Organisation (PLO) and backed by the Soviet Union - who saw the right-wing C...

For over 40 years, the skeletal remains of the Holiday Inn have stood in central Beirut, a constant reminder of the devastating Lebanese Civil War from 1975 to 1990. The 26-storey hotel opened in 1974, at the height of Beirut's economic boom, when the city was still a glamorous, Middle East tourist destination. Its hotel district was "the playground for celebrities, politicians, diplomats and spies," according to political geographer Sara Fregonese.
However, all of that changed in 1975 when the war erupted. On one side, Lebanese right-wing parties backed by the United States, aimed to expel armed Palestinian groups from Lebanon. On the other were left-wing parties allied with Yasser Arafat's Palestine Liberation Organisation (PLO) and backed by the Soviet Union - who saw the right-wing Christians as an extension of Israeli and American influence in Lebanon.
In 1975 and '76, rival groups fought one another for control of the city – including the Holiday Inn. The hotel became a notorious sniper position during a two year sub-conflict known as the Battle of the Hotels.
The violence was triggered by what's called the 'Bus Incident' on 13th April 1975 when fighters from the Christian Phalange Party opened fire on a bus carrying Palestinians as it drove through the Phalangist stronghold of Ain al-Rummaneh. It ignited street fighting and shelling, kidnappings and sectarian massacres across the religious divide. The race to occupy and control strategic positions throughout Beirut had begun.
These groups fought "over the strategic heights" of the hotel, explains Kenneth Morrison, a Professor of Modern European History at De Montfort University in the UK. "He who controls the strategic heights could essentially dictate terms." Although local and foreign journalists covering the war didn't stay at the hotel, it's proximity to the front line made it "a part of an urban battle … [It]became one the first significant physical manifestations of the conflict."
The hotel's strategic location also cemented the sectarian divide of the city between the Christian East and the Muslim West, according to Professor Fregonese. "The battle of The Holiday Inn completed the division of Beirut through the green line … and this partition remained for the two following decades."
The former BBC and ITV journalist Jonathan Dimbleby says, "Control the Holiday Inn and you control the region around, so you took the Holiday Inn if you possibly could and that's why it was such a bloody battle." He was one of the first foreign journalists to enter the Holiday Inn and document the aftermath of the fighting there.
"Light bulbs hanging down off the wall, wires, chairs smashed up, a piano that more or less survived, the chandelier is all like this broken, as if it's looking bizarrely like Gargoyles staring down of what humanity have done to itself below. The vision it will not be a surprising vision, but it was surprising that that could happen in Beirut."
British artist Tom Young, who has done research into the history of abandoned buildings, describes the Holiday Inn as "the most powerful building". "It's so famous and so iconic. It's like a giant tomb which remains in the center of the city like an unresolved scar," says Young, whose paintings revive memories of Lebanon's historic past.
Designed by Andre Wogenscky, a student of French modernist architect Le Corbusier, along with the Lebanese Maurice Hindie, the Holiday Inn was built between 1971 and 1974 and opened to the public just months before the war began.

For over 40 years, the skeletal remains of the Holiday Inn have stood in central Beirut, a constant reminder of the devastating Lebanese Civil War from 1975 to 1990. The 26-storey hotel opened in 1974, at the height of Beirut's economic boom, when the city was still a glamorous, Middle East tourist destination. Its hotel district was "the playground for celebrities, politicians, diplomats and spies," according to political geographer Sara Fregonese.
However, all of that changed in 1975 when the war erupted. On one side, Lebanese right-wing parties backed by the United States, aimed to expel armed Palestinian groups from Lebanon. On the other were left-wing parties allied with Yasser Arafat's Palestine Liberation Organisation (PLO) and backed by the Soviet Union - who saw the right-wing Christians as an extension of Israeli and American influence in Lebanon.
In 1975 and '76, rival groups fought one another for control of the city – including the Holiday Inn. The hotel became a notorious sniper position during a two year sub-conflict known as the Battle of the Hotels.
The violence was triggered by what's called the 'Bus Incident' on 13th April 1975 when fighters from the Christian Phalange Party opened fire on a bus carrying Palestinians as it drove through the Phalangist stronghold of Ain al-Rummaneh. It ignited street fighting and shelling, kidnappings and sectarian massacres across the religious divide. The race to occupy and control strategic positions throughout Beirut had begun.
These groups fought "over the strategic heights" of the hotel, explains Kenneth Morrison, a Professor of Modern European History at De Montfort University in the UK. "He who controls the strategic heights could essentially dictate terms." Although local and foreign journalists covering the war didn't stay at the hotel, it's proximity to the front line made it "a part of an urban battle … [It]became one the first significant physical manifestations of the conflict."
The hotel's strategic location also cemented the sectarian divide of the city between the Christian East and the Muslim West, according to Professor Fregonese. "The battle of The Holiday Inn completed the division of Beirut through the green line … and this partition remained for the two following decades."
The former BBC and ITV journalist Jonathan Dimbleby says, "Control the Holiday Inn and you control the region around, so you took the Holiday Inn if you possibly could and that's why it was such a bloody battle." He was one of the first foreign journalists to enter the Holiday Inn and document the aftermath of the fighting there.
"Light bulbs hanging down off the wall, wires, chairs smashed up, a piano that more or less survived, the chandelier is all like this broken, as if it's looking bizarrely like Gargoyles staring down of what humanity have done to itself below. The vision it will not be a surprising vision, but it was surprising that that could happen in Beirut."
British artist Tom Young, who has done research into the history of abandoned buildings, describes the Holiday Inn as "the most powerful building". "It's so famous and so iconic. It's like a giant tomb which remains in the center of the city like an unresolved scar," says Young, whose paintings revive memories of Lebanon's historic past.
Designed by Andre Wogenscky, a student of French modernist architect Le Corbusier, along with the Lebanese Maurice Hindie, the Holiday Inn was built between 1971 and 1974 and opened to the public just months before the war began.

The Lebanese Civil War (Arabic:الحرب الأهلية اللبنانية - Al-Ḥarb al-Ahliyyah al-Libnāniyyah) was a multifaceted civil war in Lebanon, lasting from 1975 to 1990 and resulting in an estimated 120,000 fatalities. As of 2012, approximately 76,000 people remain displaced within Lebanon. There was also an exodus of almost one million people from Lebanon as a result of the war.
Before the war, Lebanon was multisectarian, with [[Sunni Islam|Sunnis Muslims] and Christians being the majorities on the coastal cities, Shia Muslims being mainly based in the south and the Beqaa to the east, with the mountain populations being in their majority Druze and Christian. The government of Lebanon had been run under a significant influence of the elites among the Maronite Christians. The link between politics and religion had been reinforced under the mandate of the French colonial powers from 1920 to 1943, and the parliamentary structure favored a leading position for the Christians. However, the country had a large Muslim population and many pan-Arabist and left-wing groups opposed the pro-western government. The establishment of the state of Israel and the displacement of a hundred thousand Palestinian refugees to Lebanon during the 1948 and 1967 exoduses contributed to shifting the demographic balance in favor of the Muslim population. The Cold War had a powerful disintegrative effect on Lebanon, which was closely linked to the polarization that preceded the 1958 political crisis, since Maronites sided with the West while leftist and pan-Arab groups sided with Soviet-aligned Arab countries.
