Hey future historians! Strap in, because we're about to dive into the complicated world of Lebanon's history. Imagine it's the '80s and there's a teenage girl named Sana M'Heidli who does something that shocks the world. Let's break down what led her and Lebanon to that point.

Key Events & Terms ๐Ÿ—๏ธ

  • Sana M'Heidli: 16-year-old Muslim girl who carried out a suicide mission against Israeli soldiers in Lebanon.

  • PLO (Palestine Liberation Organization): Palestinian group, a key player in Lebanon's instability.

  • Six-Day War: War between Israel and Arab states, led to an influx of Palestinian refugees to Lebanon.

The Turning Point - Sana M'Heidli's Mission ๐ŸŽฏ

  • 16-year-old Sana M'Heidli carried out a suicide mission, killing herself and two Israelis.

  • The incident was pre-recorded and broadcasted later, making it obvious that this was a planned mission.

Real-world example: Think about how viral videos go around today. Sana's act had the same "going viral" effect but in a much more serious and tragic way. This showed how deeply the crisis had penetrated society, affecting even young people.

Lebanon Before the Crisis ๐Ÿ–๏ธ

  • Until the '70s, Lebanon was stable.

  • Beirut, the capital, was one of the Middle East's richest cities.

  • Christians and Muslims coexisted; they had a deal where the President was Christian and the Prime Minister was Muslim.

Real-world example: Imagine a class where everyone gets along because the rules are fair. But then, suddenly, the rules don't seem fair anymore, and everyone starts arguing. This is what happened in Lebanon.

Shifting Power Dynamics โš–๏ธ

  • By the '70s, Muslims outnumbered Christians and wanted more political power.

  • The population imbalance led to tension between the two groups.
