How many over flights of Israel has Lebanon conducted lately?
"Since the civil war, Israel has routinely breached Lebanese airspace, waters, and borders, which is illegal since it violates Lebanon's territory and United Nations Security Council Resolution 425 and 1701.[85][86][87]

"After the war, the United Nations estimated 711,000[20] Palestinian Arabs, out an estimated 1.8 million dwelling in the Mandate of Palestine,[21] fled, emigrated or were forced out of Israel and entered neighboring countries.
"By 1949, there were 110,000 Palestinian Arabs in Lebanon,[22] moved into camps established by and administered by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East.[23]
"With the exception of two camps in the Beirut area, the camps were mostly Muslim.[23]
"Lebanese Christians feared that the Muslim influx would affect their political dominance and their assumed demographic majority.[23]
"Accordingly, they imposed restrictions on the status of the Palestinian refugees.
"The refugees could not work, travel, or engage in political activities.
"Initially the refugees were too impoverished to develop a leadership capable of representing their concerns.[23]
"Less democratic regimes also feared the threat the refugees posed to their own rule, but Lebanon would prove too weak to maintain a crackdown.[3]
"The Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) recruited militants in Lebanon from among the families of Palestinian refugees who had left Israel in 1948."

"The territory of what would become the states of Israel and Lebanon was once part of the long-lived Ottoman Empire (1299–1922) until its defeat in World War I. As a result of Sinai and Palestine Campaign in 1917, the British occupied Palestine and parts of what would become Syria.
"French troops took Damascus in 1918.
"The League of Nations officially gave the French the Mandate of Syria and the British the Mandate of Palestine after the 1920 San Remo conference, in accordance with the 1916 Sykes-Picot Agreement."
Israel declared independence in March of 1948 with the blessing of the UN.
"The largely Christian enclave of the French Mandate became the French-controlled Lebanese Republic in 1926. Lebanon became independent in 1943 as France was under German occupation, though French troops did not completely withdraw until 1946."

"The modern Syrian state was established after the first World War as a French mandate, and represented the largest Arab state to emerge from the formerly Ottoman-ruled Arab Levant."
So why do people go on about Israel and not Syria?
"Iraq's modern borders were mostly demarcated in 1920 by the League of Nations when the Ottoman Empire was divided by the Treaty of Sèvres."
I could go on.
Israel was created as other states were created.

"29 December 2013 – Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon urged maximum restraint by all sides after today's rocket attack on Israel from southern Lebanon, which was then followed by artillery fire from the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF).
"According to the UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL), two rockets fired from the general area of El Khiam in southern Lebanon around 7 a.m. local time and impacted in the vicinity of Kiryat Shimona in northern Israel. The IDF returned 32 rounds of artillery fire directed at the area from where the rockets had originated."
