The character was introduced in Incredible Hulk #250, in 1980. She is a very problematic character, as was her introduction story. But she clearly wasn't named after something that occurred two years later. Nearly every Marvel character that wears a flag based costume is problematic.

That publicity’s going to give audience turn out a little bump, even as Marvel removed Sabra’s Israeli origin story out of respect.

Maronite Christians in Lebanon had the right to resist Palestinian occupation by any means necessary.

I totally agree that it is propaganda. But I don't think that the character i named after the massacre. https://thecactusreport.org/2015/09/12/sabra-person/
