''The commander of the combined forces which descended on Damour on 23 January 1976 was Zuhayr Muhsin, chief of al-Sa'iqa, known since then throughout Christian Lebanon as 'the Butcher of Damour'. He was
assassinated on 15 July 1979 at Cannes in the South of France.''</ref> Yet, [[Arafat]], whose forces participated
in the crimes, was still spared at the time.<ref>Prof. Murray Kahl, [https://www.israelnationalnews.com/Articles/Article.aspx/786 Yasir Arafat and the Christians of Lebanon] INN, 13 January 2002.
''Although the main 'Butcher of Damour,' Saiqa commander Zuhayr Muhsin, was assassinated in Cannes, France in 1979, the PLO leader whose legions were responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Christians in Lebanon, Yasser Arafat, is still alive to bemoan the fact that Israel prevented him from attending Christmas services in Bethlehem.''</ref>
