That is EXACTLY where the U.N. has tried to take me.
Being neither an idiot or a Dimocrat, I declined their offer.

Still here in Beirut.
The United Nations has just gone to Stage 4 Alert, which calls for mandatory evacuation of ALL personnel. They are leaving by bus for a 12 hour trip to Amman via Syria. Good luck, I told them. I'm waiting for the U.S. Marines.
I have a retired ambassador batting for me back home. I needed advice from the State Department and the last time I called it took 52 minutes for them to answer. He got through on a special number in 2 minutes to the task force. I told them how slow the response time was and the staffer was stunned. They are CLUELESS!!!
In any case, the evacuation has begun in earnest but they have no idea how many citizens are going to want to leave so it is difficult for them to figure out when we all are going to be out of here.
