Pakistan's disaster

The earthquake disaster in Pakistan is likely to be 10 times bigger in terms of people killed than our 9/11 horror. Ever since that date Pakistan has been quite helpful assisting the United States with its efforts to find and eliminate the terrorists who committed that crime.
We are now looking at one of nature's efforts to make life hard and tragic and it behooves the USA to be generous and very prompt in extending effective help to Pakistan. We can use a bit of goodwill in that part of the world so let's show them that we can do a lot more than hunt terrorists.
