International Aid and Support
Own Observation ^ | 8/31/05 | NeverGore

Posted on 08/31/2005 8:14:15 AM PDT by nevergore

Sometimes what is truly breaking news is not what is reported but what isn't......It's been three days since the storm hit....Where is the world?

What countries have offered supplies, logistics, encouragement or expressed sympathy.

Where are the countries that we have supported and helped over the years? Where is the International Red Cross?

We are a very capable country with vast resources and great people but would we honestly refuse a extra hands to clear roads tend to the elderly and infirmed etc.....

It's nice to know you have friends and neighbors you can count on....

Admin Moderator: If you believe this post does not belong in Breaking News than please move to Editorial however the timing and lack of international comment and support I believe rises to the Breaking News level.

Not only am I dismayed (maybe not surprised) by the marginal concern of the rest of the world...but, hey...where is the Entertainment community?

Everytime something tragic happens somewhere else there are concerts and fund raising efforts, public appearances, etc. galore to raise money for the victims.

Haven't heard a peep out of Hollywood, have we? Gee, you think Babs Streisand could probably spring for a couple of generators - AT LEAST, wouldn't you???

How disgusting is this?
