This article is ABSOLUTELY ACCURATE.
The U.S. Embassy here is a joke.
The French can get their citizens out but we can't get ours out.
I'm here on the ground, trying to contact our embassy staff, trying to register with the State Dept., trying to call the State Dept. Busy, no answer, 50 minutes on hold.
I hate posting from the LA Slimes, but they are DEAD ON here.
shut up nobody put a gun to your head and told you to vacation/go to school in a terrorist hellhole.
Better watch out, rebel-yell2, there have been some posters around here who've suggested that anybody who visits Lebanon must be a terrorist supporter who (they imply if they don't spell it out) deserves no pity.
trying to register with the State? You should have done that immediately upon arrival. I wonder if you are even in Beirut or Lebanon.
