Showing gratitude to our troops for helping evacuate US citizens in Lebanon
This past week we’ve seen an embarassing amount of public ungratefulness shown by US citizens in Lebanon complaining about the evacuation process (for starters ‘why should we have to pay the US gov’t for our evacuation?’ and ‘if you’re gonna bring food for us, bring it for others!!!!’ and ‘what’s takin’ you so long?’). I hope the folks complaining loudest about the ‘slow’ evacuation process to the media don’t take it out on our fine military men and women helping to evacuate them, but in case it has, Malkin has up a great post expressing MUCH thanks to US military servicemen and women who are taking part in the evacuation of Americans from Lebanon.
I echo her sentiments as well: Thank you.

A typical, spoiled leftist twit said:
But Marinaccio said she was pleased the U.S. government had provided food for Americans aboard her ferry although she said it disturbed her that others were hungry and there wasn’t enough to go around.
U.S. Navy SEALs pulled alongside the ferry to deliver boxes of chicken sandwiches, she said.
“It was for American citizens only and that actually made a big stink on the boat, because people who weren’t American citizens were trying to get the food,” Marinaccio said. “Other people were screaming, ‘It’s for Americans only, show your passport.’ ”
She added, “I understand this was the government’s food, but in the case of an emergency, everybody needs to eat, whether you’re an American or not.”
Hmmm…if she cared so much for the other people, she could have given them her chicken sandwich! But, she’s undoubtedly of the “it’s the government’s job not mine” (munch munch swallow) type. Idiots, childish idiots who never mentally advanced beyond kindergarden.
Zing!
- The Left would like to buy the world a coke, and keep it company, which would be great. If they’d move there it would be even better.
- Bang
The lady talking about the chicken sandwiches, what a bunch of bs — we would not give only food to American’s — hell, we are taking out half the country it seems, they keep coming, what about the 25,000 — we’ve far surpassed that now.
God I hope we aren’t letting in pissed off Lebs who want to take revenge here but I’m looking for it.
AND complaining about a $200 fee to offset the cost for the taxpayers. They complained about that. I guarentee you that people stuck in Poland in 1938 would have given much more than $200 to have had Marine’s come in and help them out of there before it was too late.
These people are so silly and naive.
- Why do I have the feeling, what with all the grossing about $200 dollars when the actual cost per person will probably end up in excess of $2000, that some of those people were basically “stranded” in Lebanon way before any of this happened. Truth is it may be the only way some of them “escaped” free of charge. They should be happy instead of bitching. War saved them in escense. Besides, anyone that travels abroad very much knows, or should know, that a lot of international airports are privately owned in some countries, and said owners are free to slap a “tax” on you any time they feel like it, generally just before you’re ready to board your flight. Had it happen in Seoul Korea once on a trip. $300 bucks per head for three of us. Nothing you can do if you want to get out on time. Tourists run into this sort of thing all the time. Up too whatever they thing you can pay. Sort of like a Southern speeding trap.

Now we know where the N.O. boneheads went, while somebody else rebuilt their house/apt/condo/spots under the bridge. Bitchin’ and belly achin’, the new dhimmi slogan and PC phrase for “Thanks for feedin’ my dumb ass – again!”.
Have any of you seen the new t-shirts with such encouraging slogans like this one, “I ordered tuna with cheese when I went to a war zone and all I got was this lousy plane ride and a damn chicken sammich”.
Thanks for rescuing more idiots. Now can you put the ones who bitched, back where you found them? Or drop them off at GITMO for a free lunch. Any elevation will do. Chutes optional, w/receipt from current flight.
