Awesome. Well, that'll learn real good anyone interested in going to any ethnically terrorist countries in the future.

Am I the only one offended by this blatant racism or is my sarcasm-o-meter broken?

Clearly, you've fallen into a sarchasm.

Then again, your people are also ethnically frigid. Maybe if you were rogered but good once in a while... Listen to this, maybe it'll loosen you up.

The bizarre thing is that other countries provide the same service, but for free.

Can't let this one slide. We did pull out our citizens, thousands of them, for free -- back when we evacuated the country a few months ago. But that's the point: we EVACUATED. Anyone boneheaded enough to now go in, on their own dime, is getting out on their own dime, too.

And for what it's worth, that language and policy has nothing to do with Lebanon; it's State dept boiler-plate, and applies equally to someone who's had their purse snatched in Buenos Aires, lost all their money at the bacarat table in Monaco, or left behind all their worldly possessions fleeing the eruption of a Philippine volcano. Sucks for them, but if they found a way to get abroad to begin with, they can find a way to pay back Uncle Sam.

Rufus, you realize this thread was two months old right, and at the time the State Dept. was telling people they were going to charge them before the outcry forced them to backdown.

The thread is still black dotted even with (minor) trollish comments redacted. Ming that mercillesss.b

No -- apparently, I'm an idiot.

That's what I get before getting my priorities wrong, and reading 'Poly before my first cup of coffee.
