Lost amid today’s clutter, here’s some good news.
The pro-Western coalition has won an upset victory in the Lebanese parliamentary elections, defeating a Hezbollah-led alliance:
Lebanese election: Hizbollah fails to win majority as pro-Western coalition wins narrow margin.
Hizbollah suffered a rebuff in its efforts to gain an overall majority in Lebanon’s parliament on Sunday after a high turnout upset predictions in a peaceful general election.
The television station owned by Saad Hariri, the majority leader, said his camp expected to win 70 seats in the parliament against 58 for the Hizbollah alliance.
I’d rate this as very, very good news….

A political party cannot be all things to all people.
It must represent certain fundamental beliefs which must not be compromised to political expediency, or simply to swell its numbers.

If the same sort of thing holds true in Iran’s election this week, Obama may have scored the biggest coup for U.S. interests in many years.
Nice when you can just make it up as you go (nt)
