This document appears to be a page from a memoir (likely Ehud Barak's, based on the header) included in a House Oversight production. It details the political tension between Shimon Peres and Benjamin Netanyahu ('Bibi') during an Israeli election campaign marred by violence. The text describes Hizbollah rocket attacks in March/April (1996), Peres's decision to launch a military operation in Lebanon, and the subsequent tragic shelling of a UN compound in Qana which killed over 100 civilians and politically damaged Peres.
