Re: Saving Haiti

Re: Saving Haiti

I get so sick and tired of the second guessing of the conspiracy junkies. For all the time, blood, and selflessenergy the US and all the volenteers GIVE. Not to mention the $$. FUCK EM. Maybe we should just pull out. Let Chavez run the show. EGC

My reponse

Unless it could be proven that the US caused the earthquake intentionally, which some will say happened by use of the HAARP system or drilling for oil and mining, "conspiracy" would be after the fact and apply to taking advantage of the situation. I am sure to some extent there are factions taking advantage of the situation.
I also understand your anger. The idea of an ulterior motive amongst the good will and desire to help taints the honorable effort. However, just the remark "let Chavez run the show" indicates there is always political\national\capitalistic jockeying going on, and you are aware of it by virtue of your own words.
My intent is not to discount the honest efforts and good will of the American people, or the rest of the world, but rather to say, "These accusations are being made, we might want to watch and see if they play out to be true in the future."
You don't really think that our country would take advantage of a natural disaster to grab oil deposits the size of Saudi Arabia's, do you? C'mon man, we don't know the whole truth, but knowing the truth sure makes it easier to find the lies. It's nice to piss you off, shows you're still kicking, but don't be mad. I tried to broach this topic as gently as possible.
Did you read the article by Mr. Engdahl ? It was sent to me by a true "conspiracy junkie". In his defense, other than being well read, educated, and intelligent, he knows he's been lied to by the government so now he always looks deeper. By the way, Anderson Cooper's lead off story last night was "Stealing Haiti". My CJ sent this story to me last week, I've got to spend more time at home or let AC catch up.

Thanks for the FUCK EM

Saving Haiti

After the recent earthquake in Haiti, amid the mainstream media onslaught of the rubble, suffering and death, I found myself detached, indifferent, lacking in compassion. Cold as it sounds, Haiti could have been any place in the world where there are earthquakes. Yes, Haiti was bad, but so are earthquakes in China, India, Italy etc. How often do we see tragedy in the world due to natural disaster? Was tragedy in Haiti suppose to strike me differently because I'm closer to it then mudslides in Peru? Will the world run to our rescue when natural disaster befalls US? Why doesn't the entertainment world jump when there's an earthquake in Pakistan?
I mean, like... Haiti didn't just sail to it's proximity to the United States, it's been there all along; Ravaged with AIDS, starving, the poorest nation in the western hemisphere. In US waters Haitians would be turned away at sea trying to flee the place. Sometimes to drown at sea. Forgive me my cynicism, but drown at sea, die of AIDS, starve; If Hatians were ignored before and left to die, well ...it was a monstrous tragedy but worldwide, monstrous tragedys occur, so is the monstrous response to Haiti's tragedy partially fueled by ulterior motives? .........some thoughts to consider as the drama unwinds:

A few excerpts:

The Fateful Geological Prize Called Haiti
by F. William Engdahl

Venezuelan, Nicaraguan, Bolivian, French and Swiss rescue organizations accuse the US military of refusing landing rights to planes bearing necessary medicines and urgently needed potable water to the millions of Haitians stricken, injured and homeless.

Behind the smoke, rubble and unending drama of human tragedy in the hapless Caribbean country, a drama is in full play for control of what geophysicists believe may be one of the world’s richest zones for hydrocarbons-oil and gas outside the Middle East, possibly orders of magnitude greater than that of nearby Venezuela.

Now, in the wake of the devastating earthquake of January 12, the United States military has taken control of Haiti’s four airports and presently has some 20,000 troops in the country. Journalists and international aid organizations have accused the US military of being more concerned with imposing military control, which it prefers to call “security,” than with bringing urgently needed water, food and medicine from the airport sites to the population.

There's always an angle.

Life in America

The news;
A young mother had her car repossessed with her toddler inside. No laws were broken, the baby was trespassing.
Pilot Captain Scully, an American Hero, celebrates crash landing his Airbus in the river.
A bag of cocaine is found at NASA, on the Discovery. Every Late Night Host will have something to say about that. Why wouldn't NASA have drug problems>>? They have astronauts wearing diapers to drive long distances non-stop so they can quickly deal with their adversaries in Love. Sounds like substance abuse to me. Especially the weak bladder part.
Should over-weight teens be allowed to have Bariatic surgery? ( Tie their stomach) Yes, just as bald old men should have hair transplanted and face-lifts.
Headline News is broadcasting, in America, a computer enhanced picture of Osama Bin Laden accounting for age , with and without the beard..........Just in case you spot him at Jack in the Box, or he rents the place next door. Are you kidding? Does HLN think Osama is hiding in America now? C'mon man ! Terrorize those sheep.
NASA is drug testing everybody with access to the Discovery. Might be a good time to apply.
Haiti is demolished. The President and the First Lady Pledge help and plea for donations. The military has a carrier off the coast. Troops are passing out water, food, medical supplies. The President is promising a long term commitment to help get Haitians back on their feet. He has already committed 100 Million in Humanitarian aid. Good. Now how about New Orleans?
I sold my old Jeep with three hundred thousand miles on it for five hundred dollars and bought one with only 150,000 miles on it for eight hundred dollars. Am I a lucky sombitch, or what? C'mon man!
