Haiti will become, if we allow it, an even bigger cesspool of corruption and outright theft than anything ever

There simply is no way to repair what is broken there

The first thing that should go in is an armada of Caterpillar D-11s to buldoze the shanty squallor that has existed there since its inception

The nightmare there has yet to begin

Give this mess to the UN

25 member Arab League Nations send nothing.

Muslims can build nothing but destruction, send nothing but misery in the world.

The dead are piling up in the streets.

The corpses are having to be scooped up with bulldozers, dropped into dump trucks, and carted off – probably to mass graves.
The scope of the tragedy really hits when you see a dead child’s leg hanging from the lip of a bulldozer scoop filled with human corpses.

This same scene could have played out in San Francisco or New Orleans, but we were “lucky”. New Orleans still hasn’t recovered, partly due to a lack of interest once the major news organizations left, but primarily due to the local democrat mayor’s bungling. It will be years before Haiti recovers, but the news crews will be gone in a few days.

One returning American women remarked she is not impressed with the UN as they only took care of themselves.

Is there something new about that? Probably couldn’t find an international crook to funnel money to on such short notice.

As noted in Church yesterday: that because of this quake thousands of Haitian Christians are now in Heaven. For them this is the greatest blessing. Now God has given us who will the chance to help the suffering. Yes indeed the Government of Haiti is lacking; much of the Church is Haiti, as here and everywhere, is compromised. One returning American women remarked she is not impressed with the UN as they only took care of themselves.

But at the moment many hundreds of thousands of Haitians are in dire need of whatever help we be able and willing to give them. I can so I will and fortunately I know the Relief Committee I give to is both honest and effective. Yes this could just be Feel Good but much as been given some so some can give much.

In Luke Chapter 13, Jesus is asked about a recent tragedy in which Pontius Pilate murdered a group of Galilean Jews.
Jesus says: “Do you think that these Galileans were more sinful than all Galileans because they suffered these things? By no means! But I tell you, if you do not repent, you will all perish as they did!”

Just in case his audience didn’t get the point, Jesus referenced another recent tragedy, when a tower fell and killed eighteen people in Siloam. Again he asks: “Do you think they were more guilty than everyone else who lived in Jerusalem?” And again he answers his own question: “By no means! But I tell you, if you do not repent, you will all perish as they did!”

Such attempts at a world government, today, would result in WW3.

This leaves Europe and North Africa. That’s a lot of real estate. Read Daniel and Revelation. We are nearing that climactic event. Watch Israel.

My prayer for Haiti would be that the country comes out of the spiritual and political darkness which has blinded it for the last couple of hundred years. Let the light of Liberty and the truth of Christ come to those poor folks. They could then throw off the chains of abject poverty and spiritual bondage and truly be free.

It seems a lot of food and supplies are getting into Haiti but there isn’t anyone there distributing it. Trucks are going around empty. Our military can’t do everything.

***
WORLD VISION, FOOD FOR THE POOR, and the SALVATION ARMY get monthly contributions from me. These faith based agencies get about 90 percent of my donations to those needing help.
***
Much less of the amounts donated to the RED CROSS made it to the needy in the past–I don’t know if this is still true. They kept 9/11 help donations for a year after the attacks–instead of aiding families that lost their breadwinners.
***
But Haiti is a basket case–like Zimbabwe, Cuba, etc. Only when the corrupt dictators are jailed or killed can people in these failed countries move into normal lives. Haiti has been a disaster for forever, and is much worse after the earthquake.
***
As for the U.N stating that this is the worst humanitarian disaster in 50 years–BULLS**T! How about Pol Pot’s Cambodian genocide, the Rwanda genocide, and the continuing Sudan genocide.
***
The U.N. is corrupt and worthless–pull the U.S.A. out of the U.N, throw the U.N. out of our country, and send the money saved to faith based world help agencies instead.

Prayers to those in Haiti!

Having said that, not a penny of my money will go to any UN coffer for anything!

Ditto. I’m giving to the Salvation Army.

We are not evil but we are indeed capitalists. Capitalism is what brought us the SURPLUS we have in order to be able to help other countries in a time of need. Socialism squelches charity because it barely produces what is needed.

Looking at the stories coming out of Haiti makes one pause and be thankful for what we have ourselves. We were watching a show, yesterday, about supermarkets. There are many in the world that couldn’t imagine a “supermarket”. We here watching football on HDTV, laptop nearby, desktop upstairs, car in driveway, and a full refrigerator. We are a fortunate few. Yet, contrary to what many politicians assert, we are the most charitable people in the world. We are not the “evil capitalists” the world wants to believe. I hope the Haitians remember. Even if they don’t, we are a Christian people who reach out to help.
