I didn't realize that Lebanon is half the size of Israel.
Also,wasn't there some Israeli involvement during the Suez Crisis?

I never did the research. Interesting.

"Also,wasn't there some Israeli involvement during the Suez Crisis?"

If I recall correctly, when Nasser seized the Suez Canal armies from England, France and Israel re-took it. But Eisenhower forced them to withdraw. A major strategic mistake.
