=====Syria's invasion=====
Syria who had always regarded [[Lebanon]] as part of "Greater Syria," moved in during 1976 on the pretext of being a "peacekeeping" force. It proceeded to occupy large areas of the country. Any hopes that the Lebanese government might have had of regaining control of its own country were finally dashed and were not resuscitated until the Israeli operation "Peace for Gallilee."<ref>Yitschak Ben Gad, ''Politics, Lies, and Videotape. 3,000 Questions and Answers on the Mideast Crisis,'' (1991),
[https://books.google.com/books?id=zRyAT5qNtjQC&pg=PA38 p. 38]</ref>
It conducted a prolonged war on Lebanon.

''This study demonstrates that Syria's role in the Middle East has been, since 1974, an unabated terrorist war against all attempts to resolve peacefully the Arab-Israeli conflict.''</ref>
=====PLO attack=====
After a [[PLO]] attack<ref>[https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/background-and-overview-of-first-lebanon-war First Lebanon War: Background & Overview (1982 - 1985)] JVL</ref> on a bus in northern Israel and Israeli retaliation, , Israel entered Lebanon in March 1978, occupying most of the area south of the Litani River. The UN Security Council passed Resolution 425 calling for the immediate withdrawal of Israeli forces and creating the UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL), charged with maintaining "peace". Israeli forces withdrew later in 1978, turning over positions inside Lebanon along the border to their Lebanese ally, the South Lebanon Army (SLA) under the leadership of Maj. Sa'ad Haddad, thus informally setting up a 12-mile wide "security zone" to protect Israeli territory from cross border attack.
