A New President for Lebanon

Lebanon has a new President. I had a chance to listen to his speech to the Lebanese Parliament on Al Jazeera. I hope that Lebanon can come together and overcome the profound challenges before it. Interestingly enough, today is the 8th Anniversary of Israeli Withdrawal from Southern Lebanon. I would be interested to see what Hassan Nassarallah has to say tomorrow. Hezbollah had a celebration planned for today which they postponed because of the election of President Suleiman. Lebanon can use a break and I hope that the leaders of Lebanon have the wisdom, the courage and the vision to execute now.
