 The History of Israeli Policy in Lebanon
The result: A defensive policy was implemented along the border until the “Hiram Operation.” This Operation involved the conquest of the Galilee, entering Lebanon, capturing 15 Shi’ite villages and establishing the “Security Zone.” On 23 March 1949 a cease-fire agreement was signed with Lebanon.
The infiltration and terrorism were reduced, particularly after the “Sinai Operation.” The secret political ties with the Lebanese government brought positive results at certain specific times but were not a substitute for a political agreement.
This was accomplished through a variety of military options, such as the Litani Operation, specific attacks on terrorist hideouts, and the bombing of the Beirut headquarters.

 A Chilling Interview With Zionist Benny Morris
So they came to the mistaken conclusion that when Morris describes the cruelest deeds that the Zionist movement perpetrated in 1948 he is actually being condemnatory, that when he describes the large-scale expulsion operations he is being denunciatory.
In the months of April-May 1948, units of the Haganah [the pre-state defense force that was the precursor of the IDF] were given operational orders that stated explicitly that they were to uproot the villagers, expel them and destroy the villages themselves.
One of the revelations in the book is that on October 31, 1948, the commander of the Northern Front, Moshe Carmel, issued an order in writing to his units to expedite the removal of the Arab population.

He believed Major General (res.) Moshe Carmel and other sources, who told him that no deportation orders were issued during the course of Operation Hiram, to be the dirtiest there was.
In any event, Morris presents a number of blood-chilling testimonies, first hand, about the massacres carried out during Operation Hiram, the numbers of which are different to and far more serious than any other operation.
But, he deduces - based on the large number of incidents in this particular operation, their similar nature, and the fact that no one was punished in their wake - that the commanders understood Carmel's orders to be a stamp of approval for acts of murder that would make the residents of the villages flee.

In the book, Morris focuses particularly on Operation Hiram, the Israeli campaign undertaken to clear the Galilee of the foreign fighters who had infiltrated the Arab villages there.
To relieve their shame they stridently and continually demand that their unsavory history be rewritten and reversed.
So as to open up the sea roads to the arms markets and refugee camps of Europe, they took the seaport of Haifa; to free Tel-Aviv from continual gunfire, they took Jaffa; to cut the Palestinians off from their Lebanese and Syrian armorers, they conducted operation Hiram and took the Galilee.

While I witnessed no Israeli atrocities in the coastal Sharon Plain, Ralph Lowenstein, an American volunteer in 1948 and now a professor of Journalism at the University of Florida, refutes Morris' claims that Jewish troops engaged in Operation Hiram committed massacres and ethnic cleansing in the Galilean Hills.
Lowenstein was a young half-track driver in the 79th Battalion of the 7th Brigade, the formation that spearheaded Operation Hiram.
After the mixed Christian/Muslim town of Jish, the first place we attacked, I did see virtually every Arab village on a line between Safad and Kadesh on the Lebanese border during Operation Hiram, and the pattern was: villages occupied by Christian Arabs unharmed; Muslim villages deserted, long before any Israeli troops got there.
