SilverNRed Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 I've heard the Netherlands and the Philipines but, honestly, by the time they get anyone over here, it's going to be too late. The U.S. is the only nation on the earth that can project power abroad.

It may or may not be legit.

Peter Posted September 1, 2005 Author Posted September 1, 2005 Try watching the news. For example, it is on CNN's crawl. Also, check this out: Offers of help Also, check out the State Department's website.

For example, the Dutch are the leading experts in water management after having to deal with their own problems. It would be stupid to turn them down.

Quit being so rigid Peter.
philburger1 Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 boomerjamhead said: Tell them thanks, but no thanks. 425925[/snapback] How about free gasoline from Kuwait? If it weren't for the U.S. they would all be dead or in prison. How about free oil from Iran? We gave them aid after that big earthquake kicked their ass.

From the link posted in the other thread: "Venezuela's government, which has had tense relations with Washington, offered humanitarian aid and fuel. Venezuela's Citgo Petroleum Corp. pledged a $1 million donation for hurricane aid." Link

Link 426056[/snapback] Chavez the Prick Indeed Quote "That man, the king of vacations ... the king of vacations in his ranch said nothing but, you have to flee, and didn't say how ... that cowboy, the cowboy mentality," said Chavez, chuckling in a reference to Bush without naming him directly. Chavez, an outspoken populist who calls Cuba's Fidel Castro an ally, often lambastes what he calls Washington's failed imperialist policies. He says the Bush administration is trying to assassinate him and calls the U.S. president "Mr. Danger."

It doesn't mean either one is a good guy or worth listening to.
