I think it has more to do with the NUMBERS of Americans who are there. How do you evacuate 25,000 people from a war zone?

Fox - yesterday - had a young girl who called in, complaining that her government was not doing enough to get her to safety. Yet, she admitted that when she went to the embassey, many or the people there, claiming to be American, were not.

You don't.

Fortunately there are not 25,000 Americans who need to evacuate, as many of that number are also Lebanese who hold dual passports.

I heard her...but, I also just heard the intvu with the Priest from Notre Dame, that went to Lebanon to give some kind of speech..

According to HIM...he is a hostage..and he didn't seem to blame the Hezbollah or Lebanon....

So it goes...we will have the dems saying that our 25,000 are hostages because of the impotence of President Bush and his foreign policy.

These people are afraid..and I understand, but, from what I understand, Syria isn't letting Americans in...and they have taken 2 helicopters worth of Americans out of Beirut..but, it is too dangerous.

They could probably get the Israelis to give them a window to put ships out by Beirut...BUT, the won't stop the terrorists..

The MSM, ...when putting hysterical Americans..who cast blame HERE...are playing into the terrorist's hands..which is par for their course.
