DESCRIPTION:
A remarkable combination of war reporting and analysis by an award-winning foreign correspondent who has witnessed the carnage of Beirut for 25 years. Fisk spares no one in this saga of the civil war and subsequent Israeli invasion: the PLO, whose thuggish behavior alienated most Lebanese; the various Lebanese factions, whose appalling brutality spared no one; the Syrians, who supported first the Christians and then the Muslims in their attempt to control Lebanon; and the Israelis, who tried to install their own puppets and, with their 1982 invasion, committed massive war crimes of their own. Now in a fully updated edition, with 60 new pages.
