The Indonesian Tsunami came to life via an underwater earthquake measuring 9.0 on the Richter scale. In that event 230,000 people perished and approximately 2,000,000 people were displaced and/or injured. Global governments pledged $4 billion dollars but the amount received did not measure up to that generosity. Individual donations collected by charitable organizations are immeasurable and it would not be surprising if much of that charity fell into the hands of scoundrels, leaches, thieves or in the category of administration fees.
The Haitian earthquake has taken 250,000 lives and displaced much of the remaining island population. Pledges no doubt will total in the billions. The Canadian government and citizens alone have already pledged approximately $200 million. To a country like Haiti that’s big money, especially when the average Haitian earns a meagre $700 per annum. If foreign pledges approximate that of the Indonesian Tsunami then we are donating over 60% of the island’s GDP of $7 billion.
Let’s face it, most human beings feel good about being charitable. Where they fail in their efforts is that they are completely detached in asking “what did our assistance help in accomplishing”. The news certainly will not tell you, governments are too busy hiding the other billions they are squandering and charitable organizations await the next major disaster so they can continue to line the pockets of nepotism and greed. My personal opinion is that the charter of every charitable organization should be revoked and its members sent out to find real jobs. Then charity would stop paying for executive vacations, family excursions, a water distillation system, a cupboard full of antibiotics and all those concerned workers who make charity a post-script on their resume – then off to a pre-selected government job reserved for Anglos.
It’s been over a week and many Haitians still have no food or water. Helicopters, all terrain vehicles, parachute-drops and more common sense ideas have lost their appeal, especially when they appear to be the more obvious solutions.
So what have we learned?
That Mother Nature (also known as HAARP) will continue to impact our geography but not our sensibilities. Powerful institutions could ultimately impact how we live and where we live. Don’t under-estimate the power of covert activity, and don’t under-estimate are inane stupidity in not being able to recognize it.
With global disasters on the rise, would it not make sense for an organization such as the United Nations to call for global human registry? The Haitian crisis saw humanity buried in rubble and their mortal remains left to the charge of rats and vermin. This sacrilege will call out for action, but be careful what you ask for.
The confusion over this and other disasters (New Orleans for example) may create a global private disaster-response army under the watch of the G20, UN, The Bilderberg Group, MJ-12 or some other unaccountable organization. This borderless authority could be a scary proposition.
Don’t forget that IRIS and GSN, as seismology organizations, can in many cases, follow and predict seismic activity with great accuracy. The question is why has this technology not been used to avert disaster? Controlling Mother Nature may be a more effective means of population control than war. Just think of all the possibilities.
Stop donating! Disaster relief funds should be given directly to the Federal government. Bad choice but it really is the only relevant choice. What have the United Way, UNICEF, CARE and all the other organizations who collect billions of dollars annually done to help mitigate the Haitian dilemma?
Thank you,
