There has been a lot written about the way things are being handled after the Katrina hurricane. All I would want to say is this: why is it that a country that can liberate another country of 26,074,906 people struggling to provide relief to its own citizens in a state of 4,468,976 people? It is startling to hear that the United States has requested aid from the EU and NATO. Is this the same United States - “the land of dreams” where thousands want to live? See the link http://www.cnn.com/2005/US/09/04/katrina.world.aid/ for details and a complete list of countries that have offered to donate to the US. I was appalled to see poor countries such as Afghanistan offering aid to the US. Has Katrina brought the US down to its knees?
