I believe it was announced yesterday the "generous" nations of the EU were giving $4 mill for the relief effort....I would expect the US aid to be ten times that amount. The statement from the WH says they will give aid where appropriate, which is probably what set that pathetic lib and Bush hater Brownstien off...let's not forget, a lot of these countries (Indonesia, etc) are rife with muslim terrorists.

The United States should match this amount or the smallest donation of any of the middle eastern Muslim countries which every is less.

I saw this same news segment and threw my tortilla at the TV.
Indeed, the ENTIRE EUROPEAN UNION- with twice our population- pledged only 4 million dollars.
The US has pledged 15 million, the last I heard. We will probably pledge more, too.
When our communities have been leveled by hurricanes or earthquakes, when was the last time ANYBODY offered us assistance? REALLY?
When there has been a catastrophic calamity, when have we NOT offered ample assistance?
I want to tell these UN pricks exactly where they can stick it.

Right now (according to FOX) the US Aid effort is some 50 million.

And the UN calls us cheap---guess we ought not send any more humanitarian aid anywhere, anytime.

Then let them complain ;-)

14 million from the State Dept. so far, and that doesn't include military assistance.

Ok, lets shed some light on this matter. Can anyone tell me how much the Muslim nations gave to this relief effort???
We are a Christain nation aiding mosty Hindu peoples this time and that is fine with me but when will the UN ask for more from the Muslims????
