"For you to take such a stupid narrow view of this situation and apply your idiotic biases to the situation is beyond childish. "

"And it is definitely not God like."

"Everyone is entitled to their opinions"




Yet YOU are the one who chose to castigate me for mine...and judge me. Good grief.

Well, what you have posted regarding this matter in my viewpoint is not God like.

But yes you are entitled to your opinion.

Your first post on this matter on this thread is post #64:

note who Thailand has turned to for help...the USA...

Now, has Thailand withdrawn its troops from Iraq yet? Supposedly they were. If not, we should send over a similar amount of aid. If so, tell them sorry, all of our forces are picking up the slack...maybe next year?

note who Thailand has turned to for help...the USA...

Do you have a link for that? Where did you get your info?

I heard on cable news that the US had offered assistance first and at that time Thailand had not responded. I did find this: IMF, US pledge support for tsunami-torn South Asia

Meanwhile, US President George W. Bush expressed his condolences to the victims of the massive earthquake and tidal waves that hit southern and southeast Asia. The State Department said three Americans have been identified as being among those killed.

Deputy presidential press secretary Trent Duffy said in a statement, "The United States stands ready to offer all appropriate assistance to those nations most affected."

The statement said US relief efforts were already underway to help people in Sri Lanka and the Maldives, a string of 1,192 coral atolls off the southwestern coast of India. "We will work with the affected governments, the United Nations, non-governmental organisations, and other concerned states and organisations to support the relief and response to this terrible tragedy," said the statement.

Now, has Thailand withdrawn its troops from Iraq yet? Supposedly they were. If not, we should send over a similar amount of aid. If so, tell them sorry, all of our forces are picking up the slack...maybe next year?

According to the following article dated 12/26/04 Thailand troops are still in Iraq. Read the article in the following attached link and let me know what your opinion if any you have.

Crackdown by premier strains Thailand's friendship with U.S.

BTW do you recall if Iran ever accepted the aide that the US offered to them after the earthquake in Bam last year? Did the US offer North Korea aide after the explosion they had earlier this year?
