Description:
With Ariel Sharon poised to become Israel's next Prime Minister, this documentary revisits the 1982 Sabra and Shatila massacre, examining the region’s future under his leadership. Eyewitnesses and survivors share their experiences of the massacre for the first time, revealing new details about the role of Israeli forces under Sharon's command. As Defense Minister in 1982, Sharon transformed a short operation to remove guerrillas from south Lebanon into a prolonged invasion that resulted in the deaths of 20,000 Arabs and the tragic massacre of unarmed Palestinian civilians in the Sabra and Shatila camps.
