Country bordered by Israel and Syria (7)

I believe the answer is:

lebanon

(Other definitions for lebanon that I've seen before include "Middle East country" , "E. Mediterranean nation" , "Middle Eastern country" , "Country N. of Israel" , "Republic on Mediterranean" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
