There are a lot of mistakes in the context.. There's nothing really called "Black Sunday". If you're referring to "Black Saturday", that was in December of 1975, well into the war. April 13th, 1975 was when the clashes happened with the PLO bus that was driving around Ain el-Rammaneh and opened fire on the church. Black Saturday was when the 4 students were murdered and chopped up along with the retaliation the ensued. It wasn't clashes between Christian and Muslim militias - It was between Palestinian militias (PLO) who were predominately Muslim and predominately Christian Kateb (which had mostly Muslim members/soldiers in some areas/cities). It was political, not religious at the core. The army didn't favour the Christians and the Muslims didn't defect or join the PLO. The army were given orders not to take action. Half way through the war, it became too tense within the barracks. Soldiers were sleeping holding their gun under their pillow. Until they eventually decided to just leave and take whatever they could with them and return to their villages. Don't forget, the army fought with the Lebanese Forces at some point and is to date why the LF and Aoun don't get along because Aoun was the General at the time. There was never a "government-allied" Christan militia fighting the PLO. The Kateab/LF was a reaction to the inactive of the government/army in not defending its people. People would commit crimes, murder, rape and then go into the refugee camps untouched.
I was not referring to Black Saturday, i was referring to the day the Bus incident happened, which Wikipedia said was called Black Sunday. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bus_massacre It wasn't just clashes between Palestinian militias and the Kateb, the Palestinian militias had allies such as the Lebanese National Movement and the Progressive Socialist Party, and the Kateb had allies such as the Tigers militia and i felt "Muslim militias" and "Christian militias" were good umbrella terms. With that i didn't mean to say it was a religious conflict. You're right that the army didn't favour the Christians and the Muslims didn't defect or join the PLO during the initial intervention. I was wrong in that regard. When the Christian militias fought against against the PLO and the PLO's allies, the Lebanese army occasionally fought the Muslim militias but not against the Christian militias, and the Christian militias operated within government territory, making them de facto allies up until 1990 when the Lebanese National Movement starts helping the Syrians and fighting the government like you mentioned.
@@Koopinator Again you're wrong. Kataeb wasn't a "Christian party". In the North, like in the city of Tripoli, 70% of the Kataeb soldiers were Muslim. So these umbrella terms are wrong and dangerous to use. "Lebanese army occasionally fought the Muslim militias but not against the Christian militias" Are you kidding me? The Lebanese army, under General Aoun, literally went to war with the Chrisitan Lebanese Forces (the main militia) for the longest time. "the Christian militias operated within government territory, making them de facto allies" The entire country was government territory. What the fuck are you talking about? Militias operated all over the country.

In addition, the Lebanese Forces was originally several competing militias (Tigers, Kateeb) which were violently merged together in 1980 when the leadership of the Tigers Militia was violently purged and the soldiers absorbed to form the Lebanese Forces. The PLO would also fight against the pro-Syrian PNSF, another Palestinian faction who would ultimately win when the last PLO forces were expelled from Sidon in 1991. Shiite infighitng also became a thing later in the war, when Hezbollah (who was backed by Iran) and Amal (backed by Syria) fought against one another.

@@th_owl4500amal movement doesn't mean every lebanese lol. Many lebanese Muslims were allied with the PLO and fought with the PLO. The PLO didn't start the Civil War,a palestinian bus was attacked only because it entered a Christian district. It did not shoot up a mosque.
Correction : at 6:58 there is nothing called “second damascus agreement “ lol I’m Lebanese and its the first time i hear about it . Its only called taif agreement thats it . Even i never heart of the “first” damascus agreement
The Second Damascus Agreement is more obscure than the Taif agreement, but it definitely existed. According to "Ending Civil War: Rhodesia and Lebanon in perspective", page 42,"On 13 October Syria launched an air and ground assault, and by day’s end Aoun had sought asylum in the French embassy in Beirut. Aoun’s defeat represented a critical point in the end of the Lebanese civil war. It was quickly followed by a formal agreement between Amal and Hizballah to cease their hostilities. Brokered by Syria and Iran and signed on 5 November 1990, the so-called Second Damascus agreement restated many of the provisions of its predecessor of January 1989. It therefore enshrined Hizballah’s right to carry out offensive operations against Israel and her allies, but circumscribed their freedom of manoeuvre by committing the Party of God to planning its moves in conjunction with other parties through a ‘co-ordination committee’, and to refrain from attacking positions or troops of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL)."

And if it wasn't for Russian aid to the Assad regime, then, Assad would be dead and the civil war would still be chaotic. Russian intervention aided in speeding things up.

I'm glad I finally checked out a video on this since I've come into contact with so many Lebanese. Fun fact: Peoria, Illinois has a huge Lebanese-American community, all Maronite Christians. Not all came during this conflict, actually most of them migrated to the US during the 1800s. Even the congressman from the area is Lebanese-American, I worked for him once. I learned that "Lebanese" is as much an umbrella term as "American" is; there are a ton of ethnicities living there, more than most Arab countries. I think the Muslims there all want to use the 'Arab' label, while Christians and other groups prefer more specific labels. What exactly was the PLO doing in Lebanon though? Talk about being a horrible guest in someone else's country when you start a civil war against the government sheltering you!
The PLO moved into Lebanon after they were expelled in 1970 from Jordan in what is called: Black September. The different PLO guerilla groups recruited, and used the refugee camps as their quasi bases for attacks against Israel. Southern Lebanon came to be a state within a state - The PLO/Fatah state.

They should put the names : PSP, Amal, Mourabitoun, LCP ... Also the map has many small mistakes

My dad didn’t do that good in Under grad college cuz he was sick of the life he was living there and was always stress about the war, obviously still managed to become a Doctor and work in the United States but he could of even done better if he was raised the way I was. I am far from blessed the life I live, I am currently studying to become a Doctor now too. In the middle of my second year of Undergrad
Probably the best choice of music I've seen in one of these videos.
I got a little bit of Pink Floyd vibes in the beginning. Fitting since it was 1975, and PF was quite popular among university students in Beirut at the time. :)
For the rest of the video the music was really on point. I loved it.

It is really hard to make such synopsis in a simplified map about very complicated war that even Arabs and Libanese don't know what we're going on in that nasty war.
Great job!!

Great Video, I greatly enjoy your Channel and the work you put into your videos!
The music sounds fairly similar to "Another Brick In The Wall Pt. 1", and that's a good thing.
It’s soundtrack from a game called Rimworld
For the people who don’t understand. PLO supported the Muslim Lebanese people, the Lebanese government was with the Christians Lebanese and was supported by Israel.
Good
Not accurate they dodn't really care about the lebanese muslims only the palestinian ones
@@th_owl4500 no they also fought alongside lebanese muslims
@@mario7216 in what? The civil war? Amal movement hated the plo and if anything prat of the muslims fought with the plo not the opposite cz the plo started the lebanese civil war.
@@th_owl4500amal movement doesn't mean every lebanese lol. Many lebanese Muslims were allied with the PLO and fought with the PLO. The PLO didn't start the Civil War,a palestinian bus was attacked only because it entered a Christian district. It did not shoot up a mosque.
Rimworld music huh? I like your taste.
Nice video great job. The Jezin enclave was abounded by the south Lebanese army a year before the Israeli evacuated Lebanon in 1999.

Never before have I payed attention to Lebanon
Correction : at 6:58 there is nothing called “second damascus agreement “ lol I’m Lebanese and its the first time i hear about it . Its only called taif agreement thats it . Even i never heart of the “first” damascus agreement
The Second Damascus Agreement is more obscure than the Taif agreement, but it definitely existed. According to "Ending Civil War: Rhodesia and Lebanon in perspective", page 42,"On 13 October Syria launched an air and ground assault, and by day’s end Aoun had sought asylum in the French embassy in Beirut. Aoun’s defeat represented a critical point in the end of the Lebanese civil war. It was quickly followed by a formal agreement between Amal and Hizballah to cease their hostilities. Brokered by Syria and Iran and signed on 5 November 1990, the so-called Second Damascus agreement restated many of the provisions of its predecessor of January 1989. It therefore enshrined Hizballah’s right to carry out offensive operations against
Israel and her allies, but circumscribed their freedom of manoeuvre by committing the Party of God to planning its moves in conjunction with other parties through a ‘co-ordination committee’, and to refrain from attacking positions or troops of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL)."

Why civil wars in the middle east take so long?
@@einmanndergeschichteliebt1760 you're wrong
It's generally because their multi sided wars, with more than one parties fighting eachother.
Unlike what dumbasses Tarihi said, foreign intervention generally speeds up the conflict rather than prolonging them

@@eca3101 it speeds up the conflict when western powers want to speed up the conflict. And it slows down when west wants to slow it down. Also yeah, its not only west but also israel.
@@mehmetkastamonu2464
Lol you're almost as stupid as the other guy.
If you honestly think it's only the west that intervenes in civil wars, you're a fool.
The biggest elements intervening in the Syrian civil war were Gulf Arabs, Iran, and Russians - not quite the west.
And if it wasn't for Russian aid to the Assad regime, then, Assad would be dead and the civil war would still be chaotic. Russian intervention aided in speeding things up.
To be clear, making the civil wars and conflicts faster doesn't mean the good guys win, it just means the war is over faster.
So yes, congratulations on be a defeatest smartass. Don't blame all the MidEasts problems on the west there - maybe that's why the place is a shit show, because no one is taking responsibility
Cool
My parents lived from the beginning of this war till the end and they still don’t know how to explain me this war. I once asked my history teacher why they don’t teach it to us she said that bc till that day the same sides didn’t agree about the causes of this war

The red area were not controlled by the lebanese government, it was the christian militias (kataeb, lebanese forces, ahrar...etc) + u should have added the areas controlled by the socialits militia (mainly duruze) + for example areas south of beirut like damour were under control of the lebanese forces...

Israel formally extended it's sovereignty to the Golan heights in 1979, so there's no reason to color it differently after that point
EDIT: I was wrong.
And what's your source? I read that Israel annexed it on 14 December 1981, so that's how i showed it.
zionist entity have no sovereignity over anything and will be eradicated from Palestine just like crusader entity
Koopinator They occupy the Golan Heights illegally, according to international law.
@@hassooonnn6504: All Middle Eastern invasions of Israel were illegal but whatever 🙄
Otterstone Gamer protecting the Palestine people. Israel is a terrorist organisation. How about how Israel commited genocide against Palestine and illegally took Palestine’s land.
I'm glad I finally checked out a video on this since I've come into contact with so many Lebanese. Fun fact: Peoria, Illinois has a huge Lebanese-American community, all Maronite Christians. Not all came during this conflict, actually most of them migrated to the US during the 1800s. Even the congressman from the area is Lebanese-American, I worked for him once. I learned that "Lebanese" is as much an umbrella term as "American" is; there are a ton of ethnicities living there, more than most Arab countries. I think the Muslims there all want to use the 'Arab' label, while Christians and other groups prefer more specific labels. What exactly was the PLO doing in Lebanon though? Talk about being a horrible guest in someone else's country when you start a civil war against the government sheltering you!
Wath you said was true maronite immigrated in the first civil war of 1860 and the PLO are really bad people they burned babies alive .
@@that_lebanese4747 what a stupid comment
The PLO moved into Lebanon after they were expelled in 1970 from Jordan in what is called: Black September. The different PLO guerilla groups recruited, and used the refugee camps as their quasi bases for attacks against Israel. Southern Lebanon came to be a state within a state - The PLO/Fatah state.

Not true at all... the red colour was divised into many sides espeacially lebanese forces party and lebanese army who were two opponents
You're right
But only from 1989 to 1990
Anyway the term "government is misleading"
They should have written "kataeb +allies"
Then "lebaneses forces"
Then "lebanese forces" and "Aoun's army"
Also in the west Beirut part, the terms OLP allies and syrian allies are misleading too.
They should put the names : PSP, Amal, Mourabitoun, LCP
...
