I call the UN a major disaster. As for Yanmar, let Allah save them.

God forbid the military junta runs out of food. They need their strength in order to repress the people.

I%u2019m appalled at the administration%u2019s lack of response to the global warming hurricanes, and cyclones as well. We have no comprehensive strategy in place whatsoever, let alone a detailed plan of action to mitigate the effects of these cyclones, and mother earth continues to suffer while the administration refuses to go forward and do what%u2019s right for mother earth.
.
How long must we sit idly by while our mother continues to suffer from the warming taking place at a feverish pace? How long must our mother suffer before we have proper c02 taxes put into place? How long must the destruction of mother earth take place before we finally put responsible plans into action? How long must we wait until we beef up our corn ethanol production? At least Obama wants to cut c02 pollution by 80%; he is definitely our best hope.
.
We the people call upon our leaders to implement a comprehensive antiglobal warming strategy at once and work in coordination with state and federal officials; these cyclones and storms continue to worsen and the quicker we stop the warming the sooner we will see these storms cease. We need action now

I suppose we should include hurricanes too. Which puts New Orleans, most of Florida and pieces of the East Coast on the "not eligible" list.

the bottom line is.....people are dead, more are dying and their gov''t is more concerned about it''s hold on political power than truly helping their own. It''s a sad state of affairs and I hope somehow medical help & food relief will make it to the people who really need it and not in some greedy persons warehouse.

U.N. Calls Myanmar A "Major Disaster"

Pretty astute observation. No wonder the top dogs get the big bucks.

No, I think its time these squalling masses who overrun the environment practice BIRTH CONTROL and stop having so dam many babies they can''t manage to live without OUTSIDE help.
When these people continue to build and live on the water''s edge knowing full well these events will occur that is THEIR stupidity and THEIR problem.

Im tired of the U S bailing out idiots who build homes in areas that get tsunamis, violent quakes, volcanos, droughts or floods every year.
