Well my response to anyone who says why does the richest nation in the world need a handout? Because we spent 20x the amount Congress pledged to the disaster relief on a War of no purpose.

Thats why.

So please, brother nations, can you spare a dime, a million trillion times over?

Hmmm... well, how 'bout, because when other countries have natural disasters, the US steps up and helps out, so it sure seems like other countries should be eager to reciprocate.

UN Secretary-General Koffi Annan said it himself, and encouraged other countries to offer aid to the US as the US has offered (and provided) aid in their times of need.

It was a perfectly legitimate question, and it was answered.
Quit trying to stir the pot, America is hated because someone questions our actions ?
Quit connecting the dots when they aren't on the same page.

50% ignorance
50% truth

over the years the USA has covertly interfered in foreign governments
and set up dictators -

Lets see

Saddam Hussein - by the way he got the key to the city of Detroit, Michigan in 1980

Saddam Hussein's brutal reign was made by U.S.A.

Saddam key in early CIA plot

Osama bin Laden -

CIA trained thousands of Muslims to fight the communists
invading Afghanistan, Osama bin Laden was one of the
leaders - the CIA sent billions of dollars to the mujahedeen
in Afghanistan in the 1980's and the CIA controlled the
heroin trade in Afghanistan in the 1980's

now in all honesty they were trying to do some thing good,
but it seams like every time it back fires, and they end up
making a super evil bad guy, - now people are starting to see
that the strings on the puppets lead back to the USA and there
getting ****ed - so thats at least part of why we are hated,
Also some of the world see us as FAT pigs that waste food, gas,
and natural resources, when they go hungry - you know stuff like
that - thats my guess why Aid is a little slow -

But I did hear onCNN that a lot countries offered aid so maybe there is hope
