Tragedy in Haiti

The tragedy in Haiti is very sad indeed, but the haters of America and other groups are all complaining about the lack of aid coming in especially from the U.S. and Haitian gangs are piling corpses up in roadblocks protesting the lack of aid. Well EXCUUUUSE US for being the first ones to respond. EXCUUUSE US for sending more than any other country in only three days. You can't just snap your fingers and have miracles appear like these complainers seem to expect. Sending aid takes looking at logistics and see where you can send food and water in. We're working as fast as we can.

During the Sunami in Indonesia we donated more than any other country and still people complained we didn't do enough. We feed the world and still they complain. In this situation they couldn't fly in because the airport was so badly damaged that there was only one runway and the air traffic controllers tower was out as was the power so that was out. You can't parachute food in when there is chaos on the ground. One country tried that and they dropped boxes in a park where hundreds of homeless people are now and the crowd scatterd when the boxes landed. You can't do that!!!!! People are panicing in the streets and in their panic chaos and murder and greed all set in. Gangs are forming and burning pyres of tires and corpses too. Now there are questions about people donating which naturally follows in these situations. Rapper Wyclef Jean wants to donate millions, but there are a lot of questions about his shady backers and financiers. George Clooney is having a public TV telethon to raise donations, but as is always in these situations, people mean well, but you can't be sure where these doantions always go. I agree with these two comments from a narticle I recently read:

Poverty and lack of education aside, if they’re blocking the roads, how can help get through to everyone in need? Leave it to the greedy few in front… they’re deterring aid to all in need.

With all the billions of dollars we throw at the UN why does America have to spend more money that we don’t have to bail out Haiti? Let the UN lead the charge instead. That’s what they are supposedly there for


Here is an article from World Net Daily on the current situation with U.S. aid and the U.N. aid and the current situation on why it is so diffulcult getting aid there.:

UNITED NATIONS – Informed U.S. State Department sources tell WND that Washington has taken de-facto control of earthquake-ravaged Haiti.
"USAID has now taken control [of Haiti]," said one source. "We [the U.S.] are the only ones who can get things done."
Vice President Joe Biden told reporters at Homestead Air Force Base, Fla., where relief efforts are underway, that Haiti is a nation "that has totally collapsed."
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was the first White House cabinet member to arrive on the scene. She made a brief tour of the Port au Prince region on Saturday.
U.N. relief efforts, however, have been criticized as "disorganized" and "haphazard" by U.S. sources.
The U.N.'s Haiti operations center was destroyed in last week's quake. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon's special representative, Hedi Annabi, who remained "missing" more than four days later, was found dead Saturday. Annabi was believed to be in the complex at the time of the quake.
In a statement released Saturday evening, Ban called Annabi the "gold standard" of international civil servants.
UNICEF, which operated separately from the U.N. system, saw its headquarters survive, but was also severely impacted because many of its personnel were in the field at the time of the quake. A substantial number of those still remain unaccounted for.

U.S. sources confirm to WND that Haitian relief efforts could easily surpass $1 billion in the next few months, much of that aid being financed by Washington.
The U.N. has already announced a $550 million international emergency fundraising drive.
Not only could the rescue and rebuilding efforts reach billions of dollars, but they could also take years to accomplish.
U.S. sources point out that even today, more than four years later, New Orleans is still rebuilding from Hurricane Katrina.
Meanwhile, U.N. sources admit that part of the problem that now exists in Haiti squarely falls on the United Nations and the international community.
Virtually nothing of substance has been done to build a credible infrastructure
in Haiti since the military government of Gen. Raul Cedras was overthrown by the Clinton administration military invasion in 1994.
