And my point is, how does how much Israel contributed come into this? Also, check the lists that Larry posted. It seems that Israel is most certainly included in the list of countries pledging aid!
So your point ,using Israel as some example of Media Bias in this instance,is moot. Your scope also appears to be limited to US Media. I've been watching British and other media channels that are available to us here in Trinidad and there has been a very wide scope of opinions and analysis of the situation in the United States. And they all point to it not being good, even those who try to put a positive spin on things like the FEMA Spokesperson last night, talking about 11,000 people saved and then talking about New Orleans as being an area larger than Great Britain. Which when you place it in the perspective of over 1/4 of New Orleans population is under the poverty line, and you factor the population this represents who would have been left behind and now suffering the effects of Katrina..that figure is pathetically small. The BBC also took calls from all over the world last night on a talk show with US representatives present and answering the questions. Great program, very informative. FEMA said it was the local government to blame, the Federal guy said that they were doing the best they could, and that it would take a while to sort out what went wrong. But everyone seems to admit that something DID go wrong. You say the CEO of the company is not responsible for a major failure in a highly important department of the company.For example if a failure in the IT department causes a loss in productivity and increased costs in all other deparments (Gas prices for starters anyone?), I think the CEO would step in on day One. I think the shareholders of that company would strongly disagree that he is not responsible for anything. At the very least the CEO better have some credible answers, show himself to be taking charge of the failing situation and FIX it, and deal with whomever *IS* responsible. Otherwise he has no business being CEO. On 9/5/05, Michael Dinowitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Go to CNN and watch then show a scrolling list of countries giving aid.
