Hi

I felt really sad when i was reading this about how the U.S burn the food they
got from countries that want to help the victims of the Hurricane Katrina.
Is this really true?
If it is what the fuck are they doing?
From here in sweden i have followed the news about this and thought that this was a huge disaster but after i have been reading  this it sounds like its a big fucking joke.

(My deepest condoleances to the victims of this disaster and their families)

Biggest revelation of this whole fiasco is not that .gov bungles, but how badly.

There are rules and regulations about how imported food is handled. Those regulations exist to protect Americans from bad food that can make people sick. If there is a legitimate problem with the MREs, then they ought to be burned. People aren't going to be helped by handing them contaminated food.

If, that is, there is something wrong with the MREs.

More childish European BULLSHIT.

Europeans need to look deep in to their nasty black hearts… the coverage of this hurricane and it aftermath in the European press has been a damn disgrace. Just another excuse for more America hate… for every true fact in a European story you find 15 lies.

For example in this stupid fucking story:


The aid worker, who would not be named, said: "This is the most appalling act of sickening senselessness while people starve.

The worker added: "There will be a cloud of smoke above Little Rock soon - of burned food, of anger and of shame that the world's richest nation couldn't organise a p**s up in a brewery and lets Americans starve while they arrogantly observe petty regulations.



Starve… who and where… bullshit. Lies for stupid people predisposed to believe stupid lies.

BTW this is a dupe.

None of the folks I've seen were even close to starving.

Starving = 300lb woman who hasn't had a big mac for 3 days.
