Syrian workers in Lebanon: one of many shames of that country

"Many incidents go unreported. In interviews with 10 Syrian workers at construction sites throughout Beirut, all said they had been victims of robberies and occasional beatings by Lebanese; all said it had been because they are Syrian; none said they had reported the incidents to the authorities. “I don’t have any Lebanese friends. I never have,” said one Syrian construction worker. “Why should I? They don’t like us.”" (thanks Khaled)
