The choice to start in 1968 came for what the Israeli Raid represented or rather, what it brought to the attention of everyone and that it was the start of a phase of unease preceding the explosion of the war. In 1968 also, came the first armed Palestinian armed organizations to Lebanon. The complexity of the war requires a thourough exploration of the several dimensions of the war.
