There is a simple solution to this carping. The boats have to go back to Beirut for more evacuees. Anyone who profanes a Canadian worker or whines about conditions on the free boat gets put back on board and returned to Lebanon where they can find their own way out.

This is a good start.
For our own American idiots, I would add up all the expenses of extracting them, however uncomfortably, divide by the number of morons extracted, and --- send them a bill.
If they don't pay, their assets (ha!) and property are seized.

As an Amrican taxpayer, I don't want one red cent of my tax money going to rescue a bunch of whining, sniveling, useless dope-smoking losers.
They found their way to Lebanon? They can find their way back. The normal gene pool will never miss them.

Anyone who doesn't want to take the boat can wait for the next plane out of Beirut airport.

No, I had an outside stateroom. ;-)

The only thing I have to complain about the cruise to Cyprus was that I was about the only "American" on board. I don't think I heard more than ten people speaking English; it was nonstop Arabic. Hundreds didn't even have U.S. passports; I still don't understand how they got on the list.

If the State Dept. didn't hand out U.S. passports like candy to foreigners, then there wouldn't have been but a few hundred Americans to evacuate instead of 10,000 plus.

Most galling were the evacuees who complained because the only food served was sliced tomato and cheese sandwiches. Where was the filet mignon and lobster, they asked.

Were you able to determine whether the Arabs were Christian or Muslim?

I'll have to chew on Annie for that. She has to learn to get her zingers down to 100 characters so they'll fit in a tagline.

OH my gawd....that is crazy. Glad you got out!
I wonder how many terrorists were on board?

Do Christian women wear veils over their heads and faces?

I didn't think so.

I was too polite to shoot photos of my fellow evacuees but now regret that decision. I was too caught up with the warships and helos.

I'm late to the thread, so forgive me if you've already answered this, but how do you know what the citizenship and/or passport status was of everyone on the ship?

Those without U.S. passports had to get in a line for some sort of paperwork. Visas maybe? That line was VERY long.

Seriously? They have been brainwashed by Hollywood.

Do you know how many more the US will be evacuating? And are we the US helping those 60,000 Canadians leave?

Okay, thanks. Just like at the airport... US Citizens in one line, visitors and resident aliens in another.
