I think it's pretty clear what he meant.
Lebanon had been a democratic nation that was having a civil war. During the Arab-Israeli wars, Totalitarian Syria invaded Israel through Lebanon. After promptly being defeated, Syria refused to leave Lebanon, and instead of respecting the wishes of the people of Lebanon, Syria installed a Puppet Government, and proceeded to occupy it for a course of decades. Syria has now left Lebanon, and the will of the Lebanese people will once again be in charge of Lebanese government.
Obviously it is a victory for freedom.
I now predict that you will make an attempt to link this subject with the US invasion and subsequent occupation of Iraq. Should you do so, I eagerly await what will invariably be you're total failure.
Just a friendly warning.
Exactly T! See? Neo-cons get neo-cons.
