We are sending in the Marines to get them.

Opinions on why this happened?

Who was saying this? Not that I disagree. I'm sure Beruit is on the State Department's List of Places You Should Really Think Twice About Visiting.

I suppose it depends on why they were there. People that have a good reason to be there probably should receive assistance to get out. If they're there vacationing, the onus should be on them to pay. I don't know who decides that, however.

I think it all started in Anderson Cooper's Blog, but I'm sure there were more taxpayers who found that U.S. Citizens who went into Lebanon and did not registar with the State Dept during their visit, were very foolish. I don't think anyone should have to pay to get out of there...but I think Americans should be more conscience of registaring when going abroad from now on...especially if it's considered a hot zone.
