History Of Lebanon : The ongoing conflict between Israel and Hezbollah is affecting the common people living in Lebanon the most. Israel is continuously carrying out air strikes on Hezbollah positions in Lebanon. Apart from Hezbollah terrorists, common people are also being killed in these attacks, who have nothing to do with either Israel or Hezbollah. Hezbollah’s top commander Hassan Nasrallah has also been killed in the Israeli bombing.
Now the question is arising whether this conflict will end after the death of Hassan Nasrallah, or will Israel’s bombs continue to rain on Lebanon.
What is the reason behind the conflict?
Israel has been alleging since the beginning that Hezbollah is carrying out attacks on our border, due to which we are retaliating. Whereas Lebanese organization Hezbollah supports Palestine, due to which it considers Israel as its enemy. But everyone quietly admits that the arguments being given by both sides about the reasons for the war are merely cosmetic. The real reason is something else. Amidst this struggle, the reason to prove the superiority of one’s own religion has also come to light. Where Israel claims to fight for Judaism and Hezbollah claims to fight for the values of Islam.
The struggle continues for the supremacy of religion
If we look at the history of Lebanon, we find that there has been a struggle for the last 100 years regarding which religion should dominate power. About 75-80 percent Christians were present in Lebanon in the year 1920. But after independence from France, the population structure started changing. A large number of refugees started coming to the country from Palestine and Syria. There was mutual conflict between Christians, Sunni Muslims and Shias over sharing of power.
Lebanon’s structure changed due to civil war
There was a civil war in the country from 1975 to 1990 for supremacy in power, this civil war completely changed Lebanon. In this civil war over Christian and Muslim supremacy, one lakh Christians were killed and about 10 lakh Christians fled the country. When the civil war started in the country, there were 50 percent Christians and about 37 percent Muslims, after the end of the civil war there were 47 percent Christians and 53 percent Muslims. at the moment
The current number of Christians in Lebanon is around 15 percent.
