| “The central positive development that occurred within Lebanon during the three week long global peace project in December 1983 January 1984, was the rapid evolution of agreement by all parties on a national security plan.” – Research authors. |
Rapid escalation of improvements during the Lebanese peace project
The first global peace project lasted only three weeks during late December and early January 1983 – 84. At its height, 8,000 TM-Sidhas located in Iowa USA created a global Super Radiance effect. Despite this distance, events in far away Lebanon unfolded as follows:
20th December the PLO (Palestinian Liberation Organisation) left the country. As a result there was growing agreement among the different factions to stop fighting (e.g. 22nd December, 29th December). This lead to the final stages of an agreement on a security plan by the end of the year.
1st January a Christian religious leader met with the Moslem prime minister. During the meeting they informed him about the results of his meetings with the different parties. The media were optimistic, writing that ‘the talks accomplished a positive improvement’.
2nd January an agreement was reached on a programme to remove all armed forces and militias from Tripoli. On 4th January the media stated that the government definitely approved the security plan on which the opposition had agreed. They stated that the agreement ‘will be in force soon’.
5th and 6th January the media reported that mediations on agreements and treaties continued within a positive atmosphere of hopes for solutions.
On the morning of 7th January, an article about the previous day’s events (as it turned out, the last day of the Global peace project) stated: “All parties definitely approved the (comprehensive Lebanese) security plan. Its proclamation (for implementation) is only a question of hours …”
Return to negative events after coherence subsided
The day after the Lebanese peace project ended (7th January) the situation quickly deteriorated. Fighting resumed in Beirut and the Lebanese mountains, which the newspaper described as ‘mountains in flames’. The security plans broke down as the fighting continued.
