Cause disputed
Lebanese, Arab students disagree on war
By DIANE BLAKE
Battalion Reporter
Last month, Syrians in Lebanon unleashed what has been called
the fiercest attack since the Beirut fighting began in 1975. The Inter
national Red Cross estimated that 500 civilians were killed, 3,000
were injured and about 37,000 homes were destroyed.
The Syrians were sent to Lebanon in 1976 as part of the Arab
peace-keeping force after civil war broke out there.
Texas A&M University students from Middle East countries had
opposing views about why the Lebanese conflict began.
The civil war started mainly, some said because of the division of
power between the Christians and Moslems in Lebanon.
The political structure is based on a 1943 covenant which appor
tions legislative and executive strength between Christians and
Moslems with a ratio of six Christians to five Moslems.
The Lebanese president, by law, is always a Maronite Christian
(the largest Christian sect), the prime minister a Sunni Moslem, the
commander in chief of the armed forces a Maronite, etc.
The covenant is based on the 1932 census, when the Christians
were a majority. Now the Moslems are in the majority, not including
the Palestinians.
The Christians also have most of the country’s wealth, in addition

to their political advantage.
Other students say the problem stems from tensions between
Lebanese and non-Lebanese in the country.
Thousands of Palestinians have moved to Lebanon since 1948, after
being ejected from other Middle East countries. Since then they
have launched their attacks on Israel from Lebanon’s southern bor
der.
The Israelis have retaliated against the Palestinians in Lebanon,
severely damaging the Lebanese economy, tourism and agriculture.
Sami El-jamous, a graduate student in electrical engineering, said
Lebanon welcomed the Palestinians at first. But when Israel began
attacking Lebanon, the government tried to halt the Palestinian ac
tion.
“Our economy was destroyed because the south was a battle area
only. There were no crops planted and tourists stopped coming, ” he
said.
However, the Lebanese army was small and ineffective in stopping
the Palestinians, he said, and the Maronites “decided to do the job
themselves.”
“Then the leftists (mostly Moslems) got with the Palestinians
against the government to get more power against the Christians,"
El-Jamous said.
“In 1976, the Syrians came in as a peace-keeping force,” he said.
First they were neutral, but after six months they turned against the
Christian conservatives, he said.
“The Chrisitan conservatives in Lebanon didn’t want our govern
ment to be controlled by anyone but Lebanese,’ El-jamous said.
Joe Chiha, a graduate student from Lebanon, agreed. "We won’t
accept being governed by Syrians,”»he said.
“Ninety percent of the people fighting against the Christians are
non-Lebanese,” El-jamous said. "They are trying to change the gov
ernment to a way which it can he controlled by them.”
El-jamous does not think that distribution of wealth and power is
the main problem in Lebanon.
“We have co-existed for over 1,200 years in Lebanon, he said. “I
don’t think rich and poor makes a difference. You never see people
starving in Lebanon.
“We are the only democracy in the Middle East, the Lebanese
student said. “Many Arab countries don’t want Lebanon to be demo
cratic.
“We the Lebanese want, instead of the Syrians, a neutral force,
perhaps European, to try to create a strong govemment in Lebanon."
Arab students, who asked that their names not be revealed, dis
agreed. One said that calling Lebanon a democracy was “nonsense
because only a Maronite can become president of Lebanon.
“It is the democracy of the rich man, not a democracy for all, ” he
said.
He said the Lebanese conflict was caused by economic and political
inequalities between the Maronites and the rest of the Lebanese.
The student said about two percent of the people in Lebanon have
90 percent of the wealth and power, and that more than 50 percent
live at the poverty level.
Resentment of the Maronites by Moslem majority led to the
Lebanese civil war, he said.
“It will be a long time before you will see a strong central govem
ment in Lebanon,” another Arab student said. “It has no muscle, no
army.”
He predicted President Carter will direct his next peace initiatives
toward Lebanon. However, El-jamous said, “Carter doesn’t care
about Lebanon. If he did, he wouldn t have given millions of dollars
to the Syrians.”
