US Sends Aid to Lebanon

President Bush continues to support freedom fighters, and foil terrorist expectations around the world. From Yahoo/AP:

TRIPOLI, Lebanon - Military aid from the United States and
Arab allies began arriving Friday after Washington said it was rushing supplies
to the Lebanese army battling al-Qaida-inspired militants barricaded inside a
Palestinian refugee camp in the country's north...

Although U.S. officials said the military aid to Lebanon had
been agreed to before the fighting broke out this week, the speedy shipment
Friday marked the first tangible U.S. backing of the Lebanese authorities' fight
with the militants.
By early afternoon Friday, a total of five military
transport planes landed at the Beirut airport, including one from the U.S. Air
Force, two from the Emirates' air force and two Royal Jordanian Air Force
planes. Both Jordan and Emirates are close U.S. allies.

This is certainly a good thing, of which I wondered when would happen. Here's hoping after the terrorists are driven out from these countries and peace is restored, the Arabs will remember who stood by them, instead a return to the "America as the Great Satan" mindset so common in the region.
