== Biblical controversy ==
In the Gospel of John, Jesus is said to have performed his first miracle of turning water into wine at Cana in Galilee. Some Christians, especially Lebanese Christians, believe Qana to have been the actual location of this event.〔 Eusebius of the 4th century share this view in his Onomasticon. However, traditions dating back to the 8th century identify Cana with the modern village of Kafr Kanna, about northeast of Nazareth, Israel. or the close by Khirbet Kana, and are supported by the majority of scholars.
In 1994, Nabih Berri, Lebanon's Parliament Speaker and leader of the secular Shiite Amal movement, wanted to establish a Christian shrine at a cave in Qana to attract tourists and pilgrims.〔 The government sent a 100-man company of troops to Qana to prevent potential religious conflict. This proposal was revived in 1999.〔"Lebanon to develop Qana into Christian tourist site", ''Agence France-Presse'', December 7, 1999.〕
