Israeli Inquiry Urges Sharon Resign Over Beirut Massacre
A commission faulted Defense Minister Ariel Sharon for personal responsibility in the September Beirut massacre and rebuked Prime Minister Menachem Begin for indifference. It urged firing Sharon if he does not resign, and called for dismissals of Sagay and chastised Eytan Shamir and Yaron, while offering no action against Begin. Endorsed by no legal compulsion, the findings carry heavy moral weight and could prompt a government resignation and early elections.
