Please, don't generalise...
You have to know that the jewish community of Lebanon is the only one in the arab world that grew after the creation of Israel... Why? Because they felt at ease in Lebanon, and they were protected here...
Then, of those that left, very few went to Israel, even though the jewish agency kept contacting them and giving them great offers if they chose to do their Alyah... Most left for France, Canada, the USA, Brasil, in otehr words, those same countries the lebanese favored, whatever their sect... Also, this movement started after the israeli invasion of 1982, because they began fearing ignorant paralells between them and the invaders (11 community leaders were kidnaped and assassinated by some islamist militia)...
This shows that the jews of Lebanon never had this zionist "urge" that you insist on applying to them...
There are many that are still here... Several hundreds, but they stay quiet... And the fact that they chose to stay, even in this situation of relative fear and secrecy, shows how much they're attached to Lebanon...
Now on a personal note, we know some jewish Lebanese... They were quite open about it, and lived in Jounieh... They left in the mid-nineties for Australia... They were supporters of Aoun, still are, and have no liking for Israel which they blame for all the troubles of the jews worldwide...
