Bush says Syria has to leave Lebanon. (moved from ATSNN)

During a visit to Maryland, President Bush basically told Syria to pack up and leave Lebanon alone. The Presidents remarks came in referance to Secratary of State Rice and French Foreign Minister Michel Barnier's Tuesdays press conference from London.



It is good to see some fundamentaly different actions by the people in this region such as those Lebanese that are defying the Syrians meddling.

This is indeed strong Preassure on Syria from the U.S., and seemingly includes some French backing. President Bush is clearly using the momentum of a decent outcome for the Iraqi election and now the people of Lebanon standing for themselves to continue to exert policy changes in the region.

It remains to be seen how Syria will react to this new preassure.
