We have apparently heard from Iran - something about paying us back for rebuilding Bam after the earthquake.
Japan has offered us some of their oil reserves and other unspecified aid. (Which, considering their position on oil, is remarkable.)

Despite having insignificant oil and gas themselves, Japan does keep a 90 day strategic supply of oil (however, it is dispersed around Japan rather than our system of four very large storage sites in Texas and Louisiana); Japan also has major oil operations that do production outside of Japan.

I figured JAPAN would be one of the first ones worldwide to respond with a BIG HEART and LOTS OF $$$ for the United States in this time of need.
