Americans Charge Their People $150 To Evacuate

Thousands of Europeans already have fled the country, which is under fierce Israeli air attack. Earlier in the day, 320 Americans, mostly children, students and the elderly, left by military helicopter and a European ship. U.S. Ambassador Jeffrey D. Feltman told The Associated Press more than 1,000 Americans would depart Wednesday. The White House defended asking Americans to reimburse the estimated $150 cost of their passage, and the ambassador said the evacuation's slow start was intended to safeguard Americans. http://www.michaelmoore.com/words/latestnews/index.php?id=7583
