Wen Abe Hamadeh traveled to Lebanon in 2018 to attend a family wedding, he was turned back at the airport in Beirut and denied entry into the country. His passport had an entry sticker from Israel, the result of a trip there when he was in law school, where he saw firsthand its multicultural and multiethnic society, visiting Jerusalem, a Druze village and a Bedouin group.
