The subsections U.N. condemnation, MacBride commission and Israeli Kahan commission are listed under the section "Postwar testimonies by Lebanese Forces operatives" despite having nothing (or very little) to do with the testimonies. I propose to restructure the article to move the postwar testimony paragraph to a subsection of "Role of various parties" and to rename the section about the UN condemnation and the two mentioned commissions to something along the gist of "International Response and Investigations".
I undid this revision by @TRCRF22 because I believe this event is frequently characterized by the majority of sources as a massacre but not as a “genocidal massacre”. There are accusations of genocide, but it is not the preponderance of reliable sources. Wafflefrites (talk) 23:34, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I propose to reinstate the following edit to the lede:
(also known as the Sabra and Chatila massacre)[1][2]
Six years ago, I posted to this Talk page the proposed edit. After waiting for feedback, I made the edit. In January 2023, a user made a number of edits to the lede, including removal of the alternate spelling. Feedback is welcome.Te Karere (talk) Te Karere (talk) 03:03, 30 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Seems that the Israeli role in the massacre is underreported in the article. According to Rashid Khalidi in his hundred years of war book: "However, documents released by the Israel State Archives in 2012 and the unpublished secret appendices to the Kahan Commission reveal even more damning evidence of these individuals' culpability, which was far greater than the original 1983 report lays out. The documents expose long-deliberated decisions by Sharon and others to send the practiced Phalangist killers into the Palestinian refugee camps, with the aim of massacring and driving away their populations."

"If Sharon's forces did not carry out the actual slaughter, they had nonetheless armed the LF to the tune of $118.5 million, trained them, sent them to do the job, and illuminated and facilitated their bloody task with flares." Makeandtoss (talk) 10:08, 10 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
