Abstract

The idea of settling German Jews in Syria and Lebanon emerged following Hitler's rise to power in 1933, inflaming the already unstable political situation in Lebanon and leading to a fierce debate between Arab and Lebanese nationalists. Focusing on the Jews of Beirut, the article examines the impact of this debate on the integration of GermanJews into the LebaneseJewish community.
