Indonesia Earthquake and Tsunami

[DrLove]

using your partisanship derail the thread?

not a good idea

You accusing me of partisan thread derailment is rich to say the very least

Trump has nothing to do with this, so far.

you injecting him is.....derailing.

Nay Will - His pathetic response to PR after Maria puts him directly in the middle of the conversation.
Let me ask again .. Has Trump responded to this terrible human tragedy -
Or are they just another "shithole country" that he gives not one Cornered Rat's Fuck about?
Sorry, but I can't even find a White House statement
white house response to tsunmi in indonesia 2018

Nay Will - His pathetic response to PR after Maria puts him directly in the middle of the conversation.

Should he have gone to PR, and held the mayor and governors hand, to prevent them from stealing/hiding the rescue supplies?

He got the supplies there, it wasn't his job to hand them out

Trump's Katrina? Nope - the response was FAR worse. Had it been Texas or the Carolinas?
BOOM - ON it Bigly and you know that.

Got pictures of the local government leaving needed supplies on the dock, or locked up in warehouses in Texas or the Carolinas?

Don't blame Trump for the shitty response of the local government.

None of the buoys spread out over Indonesia’s open water to help monitor for tsunamis had been operational for the past six years, according to Sutopo Purwo Nugroho, the spokesman for the country’s national disaster agency.

Only 22 such buoys had been placed across the vast archipelagic nation that sprawls across the Pacific and Indian oceans — and none of them worked. Some had even gone missing, Mr. Sutopo said. Indonesia Tsunami Toll Soars Above 800. ‘It Is Very Bad.’

Indonesia got hit by a 7.5 magnitude Earthquake followed by a Tsunami.



Death toll in Indonesia from earthquake and tsunami could reach into the thousands, nation’s vice president says

JAKARTA — Just 34 minutes after Indonesia was hit by another major earthquake, officials called off a tsunami warning. Aid agencies and others — still dealing with the aftermath of a devastating quake in August — breathed a sigh of relief.

What they didn’t know was that, just about that same time, a 10-foot wall of seawater was tearing through the city of Palu and other areas Friday on an island in the center of the vast Indonesian archipelago.

Amid the roar of onrushing sea and terrified cries for help, the tsunami tore homes off their foundations, snapped palm trees and dragged away victims — some preparing for a beach festival at dusk on Friday. Bodies were later left on the sand as the waters receded, and some were dragged out to sea.

More than 420 died in Palu alone, officials said Saturday as they began to take stock of the devastation and count the dead amid fears the tally could rise significantly from the 7.5 magnitude quake and the tsunami that churned over parts of Sulawesi, about 800 miles northwest of Jakarta.

Indonesian Vice President Jusuf Kalla, in an interview with local media, said the death toll could reach well into the thousands.

Blame Trump...
