Reuters News: VIDEO: Amphibious aid in Haiti

[SealLion]

I thought that I'd try to bring at least some perspective of the news on Haiti from the perspective that there is help coming and that the news about Haiti and the role that international elements play in both the history of Haiti as well it's current situation, do display at least a positive side in all of this.

From the video (less than 1 min), at least there's a display of food shortages being shipped to the island nation.

Here's a quote:

U.S. Marines make an amphibious landing as part of a relief effort at Neply village in Haiti

Here's the link to the Reuters Video:

Yes. I know that some of these things can be construed as a smoke screen of sorts, but nevertheless.....

With the reported number of homeless people varying from 200,000 to 1.5 million, tents are in huge demand.
