So let me get this straight
If you’re one of the estimated 25,000 Americans in Lebanon, Uncle Sam will make sure to tax you while over seas. Uncle Sam will gladly pay for the bombs Israel is currently dropping on your head. But there is absolutely no way in hell that Uncle Sam is airlifting your prissy American ass out of a war zone free of charge.

Yep. That makes sense.
Don’t get me wrong, in a non-combat situation I would gladly drop the $300 for a ride on a gunship. But I’m thinking the Killing Fields would not have been such a powerful film if Marines were checking boarding passes at the Embassy.
