Poster is GUEST,DonMeixner I wish we would separates governments from people. I am not always proud of my government's activities but I am always proud of my country.
If there is a Tsunami(Indonesia) or an earthquake(Haiti) we will stop what we are doing and do the humanitarian thing. I haven't a clue what the comparison of aid is but I'd like to see what the Iraqis, Saudis, Kuwaitis, or anybody else with significant oil wealth contributed to the world need for aid over the last 50 years. I suspect it doesn't compare favorably with the aid sent by the US, Canada, or Great Britain.
