with support of our government, if your able bodied, fuck it, for now. Heard report on CBS radio. While I certainly support the prioritization the plan should include 100% of our citizens. But no-doubt our flag waving neo-con citizens would poo-poo the notion that the government should help anybody do anything, (especially the young, old or ill) besides those Americans in Lebanon "volunteed" to be there and more Americans will be killed in car wrecks than those who may die because of Israeli attacks. Long live our great leader.

5 Americans don't WANT TO LEAVE.
Many have dual citizenship and "wouldn't want to leave Lebanon right now".
What a bunch of BS. I really, really doubt that 20,000 of the 25,000 WANT TO STAY.
