The purpose of this stroll down memory lane again from "Whither the Peacekeepers?" is to point out the difficulties entailed in mobilising the Lebanese army during civil-sectarian conflict - for the benefit of outside readers who have certain expectations of how an army is supposed to behave. your rebuke provides more detail as to what went on in west beirut between the Israeli withdrawal in 1982 and gemayel's attempt to deploy the army there but, in the context of this merip-online story which by this point was running over 3000 words, I decided not to linger too long on the details.
