Why you are waiting read the thread. My point was in answer to another thread and I stated, that if other countries can afford more then they should send more, it shouldnt be left for it automatically be the US that donates the most.

But I see now why you got so offended, was it because I was emplying that the US couldnt afford it? Im sure you understand thats not how I meant it. Sorry to have hurt your feelings.

This isnt a contest to see who can donate the most money and then go around bragging that they are number 1 and that other countries suck. This is about helping people in one of the biggest disasters of our lifetime. Over 120,000 people are now dead and that number will surely rise much higher. Many woman, children, and men are left with mangled bodies and missing loved ones that they'll never get to see again. It doesnt matter how much which countries donate. What does matter is that they do anything they can to help. It'd be nice if people could handle this like adults and just help like this little girl i met at walmart raising money. She only had a jar full of donations when i last saw her but at least she wasnt out after bragging rights.

Exactly. Not a time for leaving it for others, all countries should and are donating all they can.

The Bush admin once again had a chance to redeem the US in the eyes of the world and failed. One of the worlds largest modern disasters and $35 million, its a fucking joke and its downright embarrassing. The United States government is the wealthiest on the planet.

Its very early days, who knows what will be sent in the end. Im sure all goverments including the US will be looking at it over the next days, weeks and years.

nope, my point was that you're not bright enough to know that canada doesn't have an aircraft carrier in service. This goes back to not being able to put a dollar value on the things the US is sending that others simply don't have.

All over US TV is companies organizing fund raisers and making long term comittments to ensuring that this is handled correctly.

My understanding is that Bush gave nearly cent that was in the emergency fund up front. He has to go to congress to get approval for amounts over what the emergancy fund holds. (heard it on CNN so cant say if its fact or not) However, I bet we are way over 200 million before the end of next week.

I do see and underestand the frustrations. If we were not so commited in Iraq, we would have been more prepared fund this event. Instead, we are spending billions in a wasted effort to bring "democratic system" to a land that will NEVER adopted it.

Im torn also, but you can count on the US as being the long term, heaviest contriburtor. We always have been and we always will be.

I havnt a clue what Canada does or doesnt have in the way of ships. Im not from Canada. So I guess you have proved yourself more clever than me because you know more about a foreign countries ships than I do. Well done

darksoft 12-31-2004 09:55 AM

The US doesn't need to be redeemed in anyones eyes. I love when the Bush-bashing sheep come out in droves. Canada does something stand up for the first time in years and all of a sudden the US is dogshit again?

SO predictable. You bitch when we interfere and you bitch when we don't. We give too much or not enough. It all boils down to this: at the end of the day, unless you PERSONALLY gave more than ANY of the countries involved, your opinion means just about Jack and shit. And yes, Jack has left town.

FluFFYGRidER 12-31-2004 09:56 AM

It would be nice to put a price on this stuff but since a lot of it no one else even has (think canada) its hard to put a dollar value on what its worth.

you kids sure do have a lot to learn. hopefully your still youngPlease explain to people not as clever as you, what has Canadian boats got to do with the fact that I said, that if countries can afford more then they should send more.

The bottom line is you right wing fucks have no problem spending 5.8 BILLION A MONTH to 'help' a country that doesnt want our help, yet when something like this happens 35 million is good enough. Fuck off.

Dude, you realize you're arguing with someone who's only knowledge of Canada comes from FOX News, don't ya?

Libertine 12-31-2004 10:06 AM

You people all need to stop bitching. This isn't about whose dick is bigger, it's about helping people in need. All countries will be donating much, much more than they have so far, so talking about who donated what up til now is utterly useless.

Ofcourse, any country that doesn't step up to the plate deserves to be confronted, but that isn't something that has any relevance right now.

Penthouse Tony 12-31-2004 10:14 AM

This disaster isn't about the US or any other country. Yes it's possible for probably every nation to double or triple the food and meds they have sent.

But it's probably more effective to not blow all the aid on food and meds and wait to help in the rebuilding of infrastructure when that phase begins. :2 cents:

Burning down houses and giving them 100 bucks as compensation...

Fallujah devastation infuriates residents

The US is doing everything possible to kill the UN, including now... with this disaster...

" The US will be a leader in the coalition of relief" ....

This is why the US is bashed, not because they give less or even niothing, but because they bragg about being the leader, being better, richer and finally doing not so much... The should STFU....

Just here there was a thread by Metaman ( a canadian want to be american) laughing that france gave only 100,00.00 Euros ... That was right away money, like the US gave 400,000 $ right away.

BTW, they need water, meds and food more than $$$$...

Furious_Male 12-31-2004 10:18 AM

I wonder if the numbers including the private sector of each country are compiled anywhere. I know Pfizer alone gave 35 million dollars themselves.

can't you just stop for just one week. thousands die, and you go on with your ranting. why don't you go outside and donate something to the fund. I'm muslim and am against U.S. policies, but you're getting ridiculous. give it a rest.

what is wrong with you people, why everybody is counting how much was donated.

No, the bottom line is what I said it was. The fact that you are a sad, bitter troll has nothing to do with it. I'm pretty sure you aren't the authority for what constitutes a good enough donation. Until your donation matches those of any of the countries in question, please feel free to fuck yourself.

I have no love of the Bush administration but your comment is offensive. The US and the people of the US are always there to assist in any tragedy, this one is no exception.

You are as ignorant as those you accuse of ignorance. Remember one fact there are millions of Americans who are from the affected nations and they have families effected by this tragedy and they and other Americans will and are doing much to assist.

Australia already has people on the groung helping - they were there within 48 hours - we have our airforce flying a constant stream of supply and evacuation flights - we have mobile hospitals, mobille morgues, water purification plants and much more already there.

We were the first to get people into Aceh and - we have teams of Army construction engineers and their equipment on the way.

And while we're at it just divide the amount of relief dollars countries are giving by the population of those countries and you will see which countries are giving the most - and for God's sake get some up to date figures on the amounts donated - Australia has now pledged a total of 70 million.

So stop beating your chests and give some money to these people instead of bullshit hot air.

Spain on Wednesday announced the largest single contribution - $68 million

http://www.cbc.ca/cp/world/041229/w122980.html

Canada's government has pledged 40$ million (*NOTE: more than americans but you wont find CNN reporting we are giving more than USA)

http://www.pulse24.com/News/Top_Stor...1-002/page.asp

The United States is offering a total of $35 million,
Japan with $30 million.
Australia and Germany have now pledged $27 million,
Saudi Arabia $10 million.

i don;t think it has something to do with the fact that he doesn't like the president, what i understood is that countries that are a lot poorer than US (spain for example) offered a lot of help while the US even though its a huge superpower didnt offer that much..

I also think Saudi Arabia didn't offer that much, if you take into consideration the amount of oil they have and stuff! :Oh crap
