| Afghanistan kicks in for Katrina relief |
| 2005-09-05 |
| War-torn and impoverished Afghanistan has offered $100,000 in disaster relief aid to the victims of Hurricane Katrina, the US Embassy in Kabul announced yesterday. âHamid Karzai, President of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, today signed a decree, on behalf of the people of Afghanistan, for donation of $100,000 to the victims of Hurricane Katrina in the United States,â a US Embassy statement said. |

| #6 I guess we'll just have to add $100K to the next Afghan aid appropriations bill. Still - it is a nice gesture. Looking at crater that is the WTC site today, I suspect that Kabul will be up and going a lot sooner than New Orleans. |

| #5 Nothing to see here, move along. Everyone knows Afghans hate Americans and what we did to their country. /MSM |

| #1 Warm gesture, however I would prefer they use that money to shore up defenses from Mullah Omar when he 'comma callin'! |
