Lebanon’s Civil War and Syria’s Druze: History Repeats?
Summary
In r/Lebanon, this announcement compares the persecution of Lebanese Christians during the civil war with violence facing Druze communities in Syria. It recalls militia alliances, Israeli backing, the Sabra and Shatila massacres, and the lasting discrimination that followed, raising questions about how history can repeat.
History repeats itself
For those who don't know, in Lebanese civil war, Christians were attacked by Muslims (PLO) so they started having their own miltiias backed by Israel and Israel even helped them build an autonomous region for Christian Lebanese, these Christian miltias massacred Muslims (Sabra and Shatila massacres) and many Muslims during that time associated Lebanese Christians of being Zionists which caused a lot of anti-Christian discrimination.
Now the same thing happening in Syria but with Druze instead of Christians.
