I thought this was a good point
"...
Here is the President's strategy bearing fruit. Even though Jumblatt is anti-American and rapidly anti-Israel, even though he will never be a friend of the U.S., that's not the goal. The goal is that as the Arab people embrace liberty and join the rest of the world the pathologies that have given rise to Islamic Fascism will recede, because it is in the Muslim people's interest that it do so.
The new government of Lebanon will not be an ally, and will not agree with us on much. But it doesn't have to in order for the President to succeed. It only must be free. And free it will be, soon."
