Go ahead, kick us while we're down

They're offering help, but at the same time, they couldn't resist critisizing us. Of course. Why should I be surprized? I especially liked the line from the French daily Liberation saying that, "Osama bin Laden must be dying of laughter." Thanks. Appreciate the sentiment.
And as far as 'downplaying the global warming threat' and it's relationship to storms like this, all that I have to say is this. Show me one shred of evidence that proves that there's a link. As a matter of fact, show me a shred of evidence that there really is a 'global warming threat.' NO ONE has actually proven that there is anything out of the ordinary or un-natural happening to our planet. It has been theorized that the planet just warms up and cools down by several degrees every several thousand years. And NO ONE has proven that global warming causes worse storms. As a matter of fact, it would be almost impossible to prove. People today have a bad habit of assuming a causal relationship when scientists prove that two events may somehow coincide. Scientists almost never prove causality.
So anyway, in the future, next time we help other countries with natural disaster, as we have done so many times before, (and have received so rarely), we'll be sure to accompany our money and supplies with a healthy dose of criticism. And for all I care at the moment, they can CHOKE ON IT.
