Again, which American president dropped the 'Cedar Revolution'?

"... Mr. Obama had said he was willing to deal with the theocracy and regimes like it so long as they were willing to "unclench their fist." Instead, a more heartless dictatorship had taken hold. The theocrats had no interest in granting Mr. Obama concessions. They were sure that they could hold their ground, and that America was bound to capitulate. Iran's rulers took Mr. Obama's measure: The opposition at home could be broken, and the drive for hegemony in the region, and for nuclear weapons, could be pursued without running appreciable risks.

No wonder the Hezbollah movement has shown such defiance in recent days.

Hezbollah's leaders had struck in anticipation of an indictment of its members by an international tribunal investigating the assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.

But an undeniable truth hovers over Lebanon: the ebb of American power. Five or six years ago, the Lebanese rebellion against Damascus had been emboldened by American power and protection.
