agreed Russian has made ovatures of help ealier today, but that has been the only one that I have heard.

I think the reality of this will settle in over the next few days when the body count start rolling out. I think the only reason that the Government (fed and state) have not release anything yet, is that they do not want to create a rush of people to the area trying to find out about family members or create a panic in those states.

I wonder if once the #'s are out if the international wallet will come out? I doubt it unfortunatly...

I'd mostly agree. Except for Israel and starving in Africa.

Exactly. I said the same just this evenng. Pay close attention to which countries do or do not offer assistance and what their comments on the situation are. Time for long memories...

Bad idea. It makes us appear selfish and uncaring and
doesn't help anyone here.

We are admired around the world, to a large degree because
we help our neighbors on the planet.
