Since the news media have been reporting which ships are where and where they'll be arriving and when, I don't think that maps would be out of the question.
Now, if the news media wasn't reporting what they were reporting, I'd understand your point a little better.
I went back & checked the posts rebel_yell2 posted .
It's easy for all of us to do .
What upset me is alot of freepers where making WRONG assumpations that he was on vacation , & that HE DESERVES being STUCK there.
I was DISGUSTED by the meaness of some people .
If rebel_yell2 stated he hates Israel & the Usa he would have been banned ASAP !
if you read his Actual Comments he is frustated by the blockade understandbly so.
rebel_YELL2 actually POSTED & stated he hates hizoblah , & WANTS Iran & Syria to be CUT off at it's HEAD !
So why is he being blamed for hating Syria & the Usa ??????
I just finished reading a news story via pilotonline.com. It appears that we are moving folks out rather quickly now. Maybe not fast enough for the fashion student from Boston, but they're moving them out all the same. I wonder if they're gonna take 'em to the Superdome and then on to the Astrodome. I'm sure whatever they do, someone will be complaining that they didn't get their orange dreamsicle or bottle of water at the right moment.
From the news story, I got that the Embassy in Beirut made phone calls to those who registered, and they let them know where to go to catch the bus to the cruise ship. It would have been stupid to tell folks to meet someplace when they had nowhere to go.
