Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text tells the story of the Lebanese Jews in the 20th century. It challenges the prevailing view that all Jews in the Midlle East were second class citizens, and were persecuted after the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948. The Jews of Lebanon were just one of Lebanon's 23 minorities with the same rights and privileges and subject to the same political tensions.
