I just hope some of the people who view us as the "evil western world" realize who is stepping up to help again...no matter what these victim's political or religious beliefs/affiliations are....and someone might want to get that point out there....

i dont think we should be giving any aid to any countries unless they are our firm allies who back us no matter what.let everybody else deal with their own problems.then maybe they'll stop complaining about us sticking our noses in their business and trying to act like the global police.
An armed society is a polite society. Manners are good when one may have to back up his acts with his life.

not all of them....small percentage..... the U.S. is stepping up to help countries with large populations....with no questions asked and we should a better job of letting the rest of the Muslim world know about it....might change some of their views/opinions of the U.S.
