Good news from Lebanon:

MASNAA, Lebanon (AP) – Syria ended its 29-year military domination of Lebanon on Tuesday as soldiers flashing victory signs completed a withdrawal spurred by intense international pressure and massive Lebanese street protests against a force that once reached 40,000.

Without the ousting of dictators in Afghanistan and Iraq, this wouldn’t have happened. Instead of inflaming the “Arab street”, as most liberals predicted, our actions have furthered democracy and freedom among nations in the Middle East. In some cases, as in this one, no troops were required.

Those on the left will try to plead “historic inevitability” as they did with the fall of the Soviet Union, but that’s really dishonest. If we’d followed their policies of appeasement, nothing would have changed. Thanks, Dubya.
