I was not in the loop for a while but understand that Chirac was telling people that there was going to be a demand for a ceasefire or something? So now he's resorted to lying. He's such a POS.

The only thing Chirac has ever said that I agree with is when he condemned Clinton’s foreign policy as essentially brain-dean, declaring “that the position of the leader of the free world is vacant.” LA Times, 2/1/04.

I think rebel_yell told us there was a travel restriction, which makes the necessary evacuation for Americans on their own dollar. The government will send them a bill.

That's what I'll do. Hezbollah have killed Americans again and they'll do so if it will benefit them in this sticky situation.
