Been out of the loop for a couple of hours...hearing now that The US State Dept says it's too dangerous to leave Beruit.
WTH is going on here?
I don't know. I will say this: I'll bet we'll still rescue people but there's no sense letting the media report when and where our Marines are -- that's a sure way to tragedy.
WWIII
If you think about it, with the modern weapons that Hezbollah/Lebanon has used, we probably dont have the assets to get the people out safely. You dont want to see a US ship on fire with all those evacuees on board.
