The Lebanese Republic is located in the southern part of Western Asia, on the eastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea. It is bordered by Syria to the east and north, Palestine to the south and the Mediterranean Sea to the west.

Lebanon has beautiful scenery, the coast is a plain area, and the coastline of 220 kilometers has become a tourist destination that countless foreign tourists are full of; On the east side of the coastal plain is Mount Lebanon, which runs through the country, of which the Kournet-Sauda Mountain is the highest peak in Lebanon at 3,083 meters above sea level. On the eastern side of Lebanon is the Bekaa Valley and the Antilebanon Hill in the east.

Lebanon has numerous rivers, all of which empties westward into the Mediterranean Sea. Among them, the Litani River is the longest river in the country.

Summers are hot and humid and winters are warm. Lebanon has a tropical Mediterranean climate.

Although there is no oil in the ground, Lebanon is a tourist destination, with 2 million tourists entering the country every year, and Lebanon's per capita income is also among the highest in the world. At the same time, Lebanon is the most westernized and open country in the Middle East, and Lebanese girls in bikinis can be seen everywhere on the beaches in the summer.

It's a pity that everything has changed, and in the Lebanese civil war that began in 75 years, even the capital Beirut was reduced to ruins in the war.

By now, Lebanon has been divided into three parts, with the Syrian army controlling the northern region, the Christians controlling the coastal areas and the southern areas controlled by the Muslims assisted by the Palestine Liberation Organization.

At this time, in the east of Beirut, the capital of Lebanon, at the headquarters of the PLO, Arafat looked at the map and pondered.

Palestine has endured too much suffering since 1948.

In the four Middle East wars, Israel occupied the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, and the religious holy city of Jerusalem, which were divided by the United Nations to Palestine, and more than 1 million Palestinians became refugees and were displaced.

And Israel bulldozed their homes, built a large number of Jewish settlements in the occupied territories, and settled hundreds of thousands of Jewish immigrants, completely treating the land as theirs.

The PLO moved to Lebanon, where it continued its struggle, and subsequently participated in the Lebanese civil war, helping its own Muslim brothers.

Until now, Israel has not spared even Lebanon.

In fact, Israel had already invaded Lebanon once before that, and then the United Nations peacekeeping force was stationed and Israel withdrew its troops.

And last year, after the withdrawal of peacekeeping troops, Israel began to move.

The year-end trip benefited him a lot, and the analysis of the Iraqi military genius Qusay made him break out in a cold sweat, Israel not only left the Palestinians homeless, but also Lebanon?

The PLO guerrillas, who currently have more than 6,000 people in the controlled areas of southern Lebanon, but they do not have heavy weapons, how can they resist Israel's sophisticated tanks and planes?

Arafat was anxiously waiting, and Kuwait had promised to secretly supply the PLO with a batch of RPG rocket launchers, anti-tank missiles and portable anti-aircraft missiles.

Where can you place those weapons to do your best to defend the land here? Arafat, who had been in battle all along, pondered on the map, recalling his daytime patrols in the streets.

Abu? Iyad walked in: "Yasir, are you still worried about defending Lebanon? ”

Abu? Iyad joined Fatah at an early age and was appointed head of Fatah security in 1967. Later, as a member of the PLO Executive Committee, he became the head of the PLO's security affairs and counterintelligence agency, and he was Arafat's right-hand man.

"Yes, no matter how much we defend, we are always short on troops."

"I have been in contact with other organizations, and when the time comes, they will join us in the fight against Israel." Abu said.

In fact, the PLO is very complex internally, in addition to the main Fatah, which is a descendant of Arafat, there are also such organizations as the "People's Front", "People's Front (Headquarters)", "Lightning", "People's Fighting Formation", and "PLO". Abu has been in contact with the leaders of these factions for the past few days.

"Thank you." Arafat patted Abu on the shoulder.

With these forces, he will be much more relaxed, especially on the coastline side, where the landing of the Israeli navy must be guarded against.

At this time, outside the PLO headquarters, there are several pairs of eyes, through advanced infrared imaging night vision devices, probing everything here.

Ahead, is the PLO headquarters!

Sharon's gaze revealed a few traces of firmness, a few traces of persistence, until now, his plan has still not been approved, but he is already in the continuous plan.

Despite the occupation of the Palestinian territories, the PLO did not stop resisting, they entered southern Lebanon, and from time to time, they appeared to attack their Jewish settlements, and such a situation must not last long!

Taking advantage of the current Lebanese civil war, Beirut has been fought and the PLO has completely disappeared, which is the premise that the inhabitants of Israel can not be threatened!

After being promoted to Minister of Defense, Sharon began to meticulously plan this invasion of Lebanon, and this is the third time that he has entered Lebanon in disguise to personally investigate.

After the Israeli air force is dispatched, the first target is here, and it is better to blow Arafat directly into pulp! Now, Yasser Arafat is Israel's worst enemy.

"Let's go to the Bekaa Valley." Sharon said.

When the commander of the Sayeret unit (an Israeli army special forces unit specializing in long-range reconnaissance) heard that the Minister of Defense was still trying to penetrate into the hinterland, he immediately stopped him: "Your Excellency, the Bekaa Valley is defended by the Syrian army, and it is very tightly guarded, so you cannot risk yourself. ”

Last year, General Adam was personally dispatched to deal with that annoying guy in Iraq, but as a result, he was arrested and became a heavy burden on the hearts of all special forces, and he was not afraid of sacrificing himself, but it is absolutely undesirable to let these figures who have a major impact on Israel's decision-making personally get into danger, they are already sweating all over their heads to protect the Minister of Defense to sneak here, this is the PLO guerrilla-controlled area, there are a lot of defensive gaps, go to the Bekaa Valley? That's absolutely not possible!

Since most of Israel's generals have grown up in battle, many times, they like to rush to the front line, although Sharon scolded General Adam for being an idiot, but when it comes to his own head, it is still the same.

Only by personally reconnoitring and drawing up a battle plan can it be the most perfect.

So, Sharon didn't care.
