The Good Fence (Hebrew: הגדר הטובה, romanized: HaGader HaTova,Arabic: السياج الجيد, romanized: as-Siyaj al-Jayid) was a term that referred to Israel's mountainous 80-mile northern border with Lebanon[1] during the period following the 1978 South Lebanon conflict (during Lebanese Civil War). At the time, southern Lebanon was controlled by the Maronite Christian militias and the South Lebanon Army, as the Free Lebanon State (1978–1984) and later the South Lebanon security belt administration.
