Jumblatt to drop out of March 14?

It is expected that Jumblatt will drop out of the March 14 coalition after the elections. This decision is expected as Jumblatt has increasingly distanced himself from the coalition after disputes on electoral candidates. Jumblatt has largely being balancing between all the political factions as to where candidates are allocated. Further to this, a member of Jumblatt's inner circle stated that he expects this move to occur but has not been told directly by Jumblatt. This senior Druze community member stated that this change of course by Jumblatt is due to the regional and international climate and the Obama administrations plans for the region.
