This is lowballing. Look at how the folks gave time and money and supplies to the people and their families who were wiped out in NYC. That was not propaganda. Look at what is planned, not just by Bush and Blair, but Chretien, and others, to help rebuild, including lots and lots of food (like 8 million tons to move in as soon as it is stable there). The food drop is obviously of psyops value, but at 4 bucks a package, plus transport costs, it is a far cry from leaflets and radio announcements. Just to be fair, put it into context of what the USA did for Japan when McArthur said send me bread or send me rifles. We sent lots of bread, as well as medical and construction crews. dh ###
