Also, read up on Americans stuck in Gaza with no way out.

- bwb 2y agoHow kind of them :)
- actionfromafar 2y agoI just mentioned it because the real cost must be much, much higher in many cases, and I imagined being on the hook for a million dollars.
- bwb 2y agoTrue, but it is kinda like paying for insurance and then when you need it you get a giant surprise bill. Although ironically much like the American health care insurance system which is much the same. Pay every month for “insurance”, and when you need it you also pay for it. Fun times.
- actionfromafar 2y agoI did come to think of how a US ambulance ride could be more costly than being evacuated...
- bwb 2y agomaybe we can get the Marines to start running ambulances regionally :) slap a turret on the ambulance and it can be training for the corpsmen
