Why does Syria 'hate' Israel?

Many Lebanese Christians and Sunnis hate Syria because of what the Syrian rule of the last 40 years has done to Lebanon. The Syrian government meddle in Lebanese affairs and have never respected the independence and sovereignty of Lebanon and have always had a great influence over Lebanon. Many Sunnis and Christians want Lebanon to be an independent state, and are supporters of Lebanese nationalism. Syria has never accepted this and the Lebanese have never been fond of them for this.
