Reagan says Israel acted after PLO cease-fire breach
President Reagan said the United States gave Israel no green light for the Lebanon invasion and that Israeli troops moved only after PLO aggression broke a cease-fire. He said the U.S. was surprised by the Israeli push toward Beirut and urged an end to bloodshed while warning against the Soviet gas pipeline. He defended Donavan, hinted at a 1984 bid, and noted Begin’s stance amid cluster bomb concerns.
