Across the world, so many disasters take place and so many accidents too, it at time sis unbelievable to live with on the News and on radio and Television. We all feel for the survivors of these disasters like Japan’s massive earthquake and tsunami . We all want to help so much, but there also comes a time when we have to face some bare facts, we are not the America we have been in the past.
We do not have the money and energy nor ability to spread ourselves so thin anymore. We can not solve Iraq’s problems, Afghanistan’s problems and now Japan’s. We are not the big money making country we have been in the past, although we shall always have the world’s greatest military to defend and support us. And sadly to say, we over extend our military and our budgets to help others and in the end we destroy ourselves. Why?
In the past we have paid to rebuild Japan after World War Two, because we dropped the big one on them. We did the respectful thing and the right thing then and will probably do so now. It’s how we as Americans work and live. We do not have the ability to tell a nation no when it is in a bad place or if it has a disaster like Japan did. We will rush in and provide all the assistance we can of course. But, if we have disasters in America, you will not see other countries rushing to our aid, they just watch as we pick ourselves up and fix it alone. It’s amazing that no matter what happens the first place and people the world looks at for help and assistance is The USA. We always seem to be the ones they all believe are so much better off we can always help someone else. Why?
We Americans witnessed this disaster in Japan from a distance of course but we also know these are now Allies and Friends so we rush in for humantarian reasons and because it is right. We shall do our best to help as much as we can from repairs to feeding them and medical care and more. It’s because who we really are that we do these things. In the end, we shall be the ones giving as usual and doing our best at it too.Japan once a member of the hated Axis powers of World War 2, is now a friend of ours after we rebuilt them of course. And we Americans do forget and forgive and carry on don’t we. AH Japan needs the assistance and the great and wondeful USa will do it’s best to help.
God help the survivors and the whole country of Japan and may they be able to recover fully and 100 percent. As we are seeing though one disaster led to another from earthquake to tsunami, now to Nuclear power plant failures and radiation problems. When shall it all end is the question? Hopefully, we can help prevent the meltdowns and save what is left the best we can. May God help and protect and save.
