Israel more concerned about sushi shortage after quake !

Also in Ynet news....
Reports from Sendai
Cars are buried so deep in the mud it is hard to tell whether or not there are bodies inside. In other cars, empty cars, everything seems as it did before the wave hit. A purse in one car, a CD visor on the floor of another. No one touches them. There is no pillaging here.


and there was this report from 3 days ago.
Israel's first humanitarian aid organization will touch down in Japan today to help rescue and relief efforts in the island nation. An hour after the horrifying earthquake and devastating tsunami struck Japan, Israel pledged its support to help.

The UN-recognized ZAKA organization (a Hebrew acronym for Disaster Victims Identification) dispatched one team from Israel last night, and a second ZAKA group based in Hong Kong was to leave for the quake area overnight.

ZAKA's experts have extensive experience assisting at natural disasters around the world, including Haiti, the tsunami in Thailand and the Katrina hurricane in New Orleans.

Upon news of the world record earthquake, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu delivered a message to the Japanese government saying that the "people of Israel express their deep sorrow over the tragedy in Japan, and that he will work to provide any help that will be required."

"Israel officially offered its help an hour after the earthquake struck," Japan consul in Israel, Mitoshiko Shinomya, told local Israeli media. "It is very heart-warming, but at this point we do not know exactly what the extent of the damage is, so it is difficult for us to say what can be done."

The 8.9 magnitude earthquake struck a nation said to be the leader in earthquake-ready preparation. But the damage was insurmountable, wiping out and submerging entire coastal towns. Japanese officials believe the death toll will be in the thousands.

In addition to ZAKA, other Israeli and Jewish humanitarian organizations grouped together to help the Japanese.

IsraAID-FIRST, an Israeli umbrella group of relief organizations, said it was preparing to send a team of experts to assist in relief efforts.

"We've been looking past few hours at the damage and the needs," IsrarAID head Shahar Zehavi said. "Our main agenda is to send a delegation of earthquakes specialists and water purification experts to the region."
 
What a country of SCUMBAGS! Thousands of people died and they are worried about their sushi! If the same happened here in America as it did in Japan, Israel would worry about not getting you US tax money aid! All of you who are pro israel truly SUCK!

I normally pass the blatantly racist crap. But the stewpudity of this is shocking.

Are you aware that Israel touches the Med? And they can get all the raw fish they want from there?


fyi; I didn't read that ignront link. My brain doesn't want to laugh that hard at you.
 
Ynet is a respected Israeli news site. It is even right of center on a lot of issues.

They are, however, very much a "warts and all" news site. It sees its patriotic duty to make sure problems are fixed, rather than ignored.
 
Some time next week Israeli aid will start landing in Japan. Like in Haiti, it will probably be the most effective and efficient aid available.

Meanwhile, nothing will come from any arab country.

I find that assumption interesting, especially since you seem to recall the relief effort in Haiti...

New York, 28 January 2010): The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has contributed US$50 million to support the United Nations humanitarian response to the earthquake in Haiti. This makes the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia one of the main contributors to the Haiti Flash Appeal, which was launched on 15 January.

....

According to the OCHA Financial Tracking Service, the largest donors to the Haiti Flash Appeal as of 27 January are the United States ($106,527,907); Canada ($57,080,926); Kingdom of Saudi Arabia ($50,000,000); Spain ($40,067,583); Sweden ($18,158,036); France ($16,883,114); Norway ($11,542,460) and Denmark ($10,664,564).

And from the unlikeliest of places:

It might be one of the world’s poorest areas, besieged by its neighbour Israel, but Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip have been donating what little they have to help those struck by the earthquake in Haiti.

Among the donations collected by a Red Cross representative: toys, toiletries and sweets – small luxuries that Gazans know only too well can brighten spirits in the face of devastation. Some also gave money.

I remember reading that none of the donations made it through the Israeli blockade apart from the money.

In any case, the sources of the aid are less important than its availability to the disaster victims and Haiti remains in dire need of assistance.
