Asian Quake Aid

There has been so little discussion of this in the U.S., it's sad.

( Disinterest from the world's governments )

( And disinterest from the world's population: 'The response to the South Asian earthquake has raised a troubling question: In the face of such calamity, why is the world not doing more?' )

If you want to improve the world and make it a more peaceful, more free place, it seems to me that providing help to those who are in desperate need is a better way than invading countries and starting wars for nebulous reasons, especially when you go into a war with a strategic plan built of cotton candy and self-delusion.

I'm not sitting around just wringing my hands on this, but I wish more people would take a look at this horrible disaster and see the genuine chance to do something good for human beings who are not just suffering, but are in real mortal danger.
