Nobody was kicked out of Lebanon either. It was established as a French Mandate following the fall of the Ottoman Empire in 1918. It became independent in 1943 with a unique power sharing arrangement between the Christian Maronite and Muslim Druze population. Everyone got along so well that Lebanon was referred to as the Switzerland of the Middle East and rivaled Israel in development into a modern state.
The civil war and resulting UN interference to turn Lebanon into a refugee camp for Pallies, Hezbollah and other imported foreigners transformed Lebanon into what we have today.
Now, the natives are trying to transform it back. A Lebanon for Christians and moderate Muslims is a giant step toward restoring that peace.

I wouldn’t call Druze Muslims. They’re some sort of a weird hybrid, but the end result is they are not out to murder, rape or even cause problems. Druze are a staple element in the IDF and Israeli police. You can walk through a Druze town without being accosted, and they even have tourist shops where they sell divers crap to tourists.

Eradicating Hizbollah and the various Pali factions in Lebanon would be a giant step forward. It was supposed to be an eastern Christian homeland just like Israel was meant to be a Jewish one.
