Personal Responsibility and Other Issues

A group of Arab-Americans have sued Donald Rumsfeld and Condoleeza Rice over the slow evacuation of Americans from Lebanon.  They seem to think that it is the responsibility of the government to be take care of them in every situation.  The responsibility of the government to protect its citizens can only go so far.  What is more disturbing is that they are asking the courts to order Rumsfeld and Rice to cease sending arms to Israel, to enact a ceasefire and to make better efforts to help them evacuate.  Well, if the courts can pass laws by judicial fiat, why not let them manage foreign policy as well?
