rebel_yell2 is out of Beirut...in Athens! (Vainity)
Freepmail | 07/20/06 | chgogal

"I'm out!!! Got out on the Orient Queen yesterday to Larnaca. Am now in Athens and will be in Chicago tonight. More then. Feel free to share this, as I don't have time to post yet. Got lots of pictures of the evacuation. And about half of the passengers WERE NOT U.S. Citizens!!! Lebanese nationals with Green cards and what all. My group were almost the ONLY people speaking English. It was sickening. MAKE THEM ALL PAY!!! They were treating it as a vacation cruise oblivious that their country is being destroyed. We were so mad we couldn't stand it. I'm still steaming . . . ."

He really wanted to sail out of Beirut on your namesake.

Spread the word if you feel like it. It's nice seeing the US Military getting the job done AGAIN. It makes one so very very proud.

The link I posted is from a freeper who doesn't even think Rebel_Yell2 was even in Lebanon.

The lies about Rebel on that thread are breathtaking.

Good news ry2! I quit reading the other threads because of nastiness, and just did my quiet praying and waited for news. Can't wait to see the pictures.

It would be nice to see RY2 on O'Reilly or Hannity reporting this nonsense. Gosh, I'm so glad I wasn't on that "cruise", I would have made a spectacle of myself. LOL

I'm guessing, it was first come first served. The Lebanese knew the ropes. Good lesson for all of us should we find ourselves in the same position as RY2. Register in person and then register again in person.

I am not going to respond to you further on this point, as I do not want to enable you to take yet another thread down the toilet. What you did is out there for everyone to see.

End of story.

Congratulations Reb for a job well done. I have a feeling that you are now one of Free Republics most experienced freepers on the middle east situation since you were there.

Please get home safe, unwind and then give us a no shi--er debriefing on what you saw. I look forward to reading it.

I am so relieved that you made it out, your situation made me think of you on and off over the last few days of not reading your posts.

What I did is post to Rebel that I was anxious to hear from him and said banned freeper then posted a few lies about both my post and me.

Another freeper hit abuse on him and said so openly. The mods told him to stop and he argued with the mods.

I've posted the link on this thread and would be delighted if someone would read it and see just what kind of liar you are.

You have a great day.

Hey, rebel_yell2, I forgot: I left a cologne on the bureau in that hotel back in Beirut.

Can you go back and get that for me?

Thanks!

LOL, sure no problem. Ahhhh, can you give me your credit card number? I need to purchase some plane tickets, increase my life insurance, buy hostage insurance, hire some bodyguards and buy myself a new outfit. But anything for your bottle of Cologne, nothing is too much. Thanks! ;)

Famous last words spoken by someone who can't back up his lie about how/why that freeper got banned. Typical.

Darn Right! This could become very interesting. This is a perfect story for O'Rielly/Hannity. Looks like our generous State Department may have stepped into it again. Bummer.
