...in April 1975 with Christian Maronite community fighting a leftist/PLO coalition, Syria attacked. Operating as an "Arab Deterrent Force," Syria defeated leftist forces. (Palestinian, Druze, and Sunni) Then Syria attacked the core Christian community that gave Lebanon "its special national distinction." During "the 100 Days War" in mid-1978, Syria blasted Christian East Beirut, driving out 300,000 people, etc. The idea was to destroy the Christians and make Lebanon "more Arab" along the Syrian model. The Syrians were responsible for the deaths of approximately 100,000 Lebanese and the flight of about a half a million people from the country.
