AP reports that 120 Americans leave Lebanon by helicopter. This means the U.S. will need approximately 209 days to evacuate all 25,000 Americans stranded in Lebanon. I did the calculation: 208 days is Mid-February of next year.
After reading the headline and writing the above, I read in the report, By the end of the week, the evacuation will proceed at a pace of 1,000 Americans a day. This gives us 20-plus days to see the Americans evacuated. In comparison to Katrina, the numbers are not bad, not bad at all.

Please, give me a break...
