Tell me again why Sri Lanka refused millions of dollars worth of help
immediately after the disaster? Couldn't be because they are Muslims
serving a god that no Christian has ever heard of?

If you don't stop with the pedophile nonsense, you will go right back into

I'm a patient lady, but you are being credulous!

You're quoting facts that are not accurate. Since you haven't bothered to
actually do the research, it seems to me that you don't care about the
facts. Now who does this remind me of....

Why? After they turned down Israel the same day the tragedy happened?

We will be hated by some no matter what we do, but we have a moral
obligation to do all we can to help the less fortunate.


Bwaahwhahahwahaaa! Do you really think those people want us to help?

How many loops do we need to jump through just the help the poor innocent
people there? Their government doesn't want any help, they want to make
the news...

What an igornorant post! When they refuse help minutes after the

disaster,
what can one do?

LP


'Minutes after the disaster', they had no idea of the scale of the disaster,
nor did the rest of the world.
As for being ignorant I suspect, subject to correction from any of you,
that I am the only person posting here that has spent a considerable amount
of time in Sri Lanka, not as a tourist, but working, first when I was in the
Royal Navy based at Trincomalee on the east coast and years later as a
businessman working in Colombo in connection with the railways. And, by the
way, your assumption that Sri Lanka is a Muslim country is incorrect.
Certainly there are Muslims there as there are in most countries but a very
high proportion of the population have other religions, including a lot of
Christians.
Moreover, I do not agree with those who started this thread by suggesting
that the USA is dragging its feet on aid. I believe the USA is doing what
has to be done as fast or even faster than the aid can be handled at the
receiving end, which means 'fast enough'.

LP, while you are claiming that Europeans are ignorant (BTW of what?) you
are displaying a considerable degree of ignorance yourself.
Facts are readily available. Put 'religions, sri lanka' into google and
within seconds you will learn that it is not a Muslim country at all as you
seem to imagine.
To save you the trouble, in 1999 the split was:-
Buddhist 70%
Hindu 15%
Christian 8%
Muslim 7%

So get that chip off your shoulder...

Then how come you're the one who's supporting "facts" that aren't facts
pinhead? You lose again. Did you get tired of this when Bob was forcing you
to lose?

Oh please, Donal! Tell me why they refused the help and dollars from

Israel
immediately after the crisis?


No!

Perhaps you should explain why you feel the need to emphasise the Muslim
refusal of aid. It was an isolated incident. Does it make you think that
the rest of the victims do not deserve help? Are you really able to write
off the dreadful plight of millions of humans because of a single incident?

You seem to be hiding behind a ("Fox" led) veil of pure ignorance. The
people of Sri Lanka and Thailand are NOT predominantly Muslim. Indonesia
has many Christians, as well as Muslims. Malaysia has many religions, and
Muslims are in a minority.

Here is Israel trying to help the people
(Muslims) that are trying to kill them off.

Do you guys in the UK not really have an idea about what goes on in the
world today? Too busy listening to the partisian NPR?


It seems that we know an awful lot more than you. I've visited several of
the affected countries, and I learned a bit about their religions while I
was there. If you took a few minutes to do your own research, then you
would realise that you are being fed a stream of twisted propoganda by your
media.
