Mind you if the rags stories this morning are true about the USA having serious concerns about the extremists in this country GB might be out of the game.

when I found Accyweb, I had a quick look at some of the posts and got the impression that being drunk and mentally disturbed was a pre-condition to joining..I didn't read the rules.

aint a pre-condition, but it sure helps.

They are not ungreatfull (sic) ... many haven't eaten for six days .... there is little safe drinking water .... a doctor from Medcens sans Frontiers interviewed on CBC said that they are operating under trees, on plastic sheets spread on the ground ... just about everyone in the major affected areas has lost family members ... they probably just don't know what's happening, because they are not sitting around in front of their 52" tvs watching. Violence is bound to occur ... Remember what happened after Katrina?

I do hope that if the Yanks offer out Kraft 'Cheese' slices to the Haitians as food aid, our caribbean friends will have the good sense to boycott the said product, and any other food manufactured by this awful company. Lets keep Cadbury British.

the eithiopians didnt have 52 inch tvs either yet they rallied round and helped each other as best they coudl considering they were starving to death and as far as i remember rather than attack the people sent to help them they worked with the poeple sent to help them to distribute the aid like food etc and qued up to get vacination shots.What they didnt do was turn on each other like a pack of animals and im pretty sure that if a disaster ever hit the UK the people would rally round together despite how bad the papers woudl have us believe about teh people of today i still think we would rather pull together than turn on each other.After the earthquakes in pakistan people who survived set about digging out and searching for survivors and worked alongside aid workers,after the fires in australia neigbouring towns gave refuge and pulled together to help their fellow man who had lost everthing.

haiti is an unstable and corrupt place at the best of times but surely there is point where even they shoudl realise that its not a good idea to attack people sent to help them and pull together rather than to continue robbing and killing each other because rioting will only acheive more destruction

aid is struggleng to get through so instead of rioting and looting why dont those able to move about help getteh aid through rather than riot
