Documentary Relives Horror of Shatila Massacre

DUBAI, December 15, 2005 (IslamOnline.net & News Agencies) – Twenty-three years after hacking to death Palestinian refugees, six Israeli-backed Lebanese Christian militiamen show no remorse recounting the massacre in a new chilling documentary.

“With hanging or shooting you just die, but this is double,” recalls one of the men, explaining how he took an old Palestinian and held him back against a wall, slicing him open in the shape of a cross.

“You die twice since you also die from the fear,” he says nonchalantly of the act, describing white flesh and bone.

German director Monika Borgmann’s film “Massaker” shows the six speaking out for the first time about their role in the Sabra and Shatila massacre during Israel’s invasion of Lebanon.

Though no definite figures are available, around 2,000 Palestinians were massacred inside the camps in September of 1982 by the Christian militia under the watchful eyes of their Israeli alley.

Unlike massacres in some other conflicts, the perpetrators of Sabra and Shatila have not been brought to justice.
