Hello
I think everybody knows, what's happen in America, exactly in South-Amerika. The hurrican Katrina. I have seen the pictures, movies, and so on in the tv. It's terrible in my opinion. What do you say about this catastrophe?

Yeah, it's terrible to see them starving now. Some people said that it was because they would held a homosexual party there so God punished them. The Homosexual party actually would be held two days after the day of the hurricane

What the hurricane did was terrible, what some of the people are doing is disgusting and even more horrific.

I hardly think they are starving yet, it has only been four days, they are Americans,many of them look like they have enough fat on their bones to keep them going without food for quite awhile yet. And there would  have been enough supplies of bottled drinks to keep them going up til now.

I don't think God punishes people, we inflict the consequences of our own actions both on ourselves and others, we punish ourselves in the end.

Hmm, I don't think, that god did something. It's "simply" a catastrophe, whitch every year comes true (I hope that comes true I can say (grammar) otherwise correct my please!)
But the thieves are also terrible. What do they think? At first they had the hurrican, than the thieves. It's a hard time there!

When you say god punished them, why did he punish them exactly there? Why not in Washington?

the USA is the strongest country in the world,which can invade and conquer any other country.but,while facing the power of the nature,how puny it is.its all-conquering armys have the abilitys to kill thousands of resisters in other's country,but have no time to save the people in their own country.

to be up against the catastrophes,what we need is solidarity and  mutual aid. extending my sincere wishes to the people of new orleans.

Dear Kuwait- here what a horrible thing to say. How little you know of a merciful God. There are many good people in America as there are everywhere else and butchers like Sadam and Hitler. To mention a few. Peace be with you. Please keep these thoughts to yourself. This is an English forum not a hate campaign.
