Who ya gonna call?

When a major disaster occurs, in this case the earthquake in Haiti, who ya gonna call? Well, the USA of course! Peoples don't depend on the Muslim countries, and certainly not on the Islamists who are busy killing people to supposedly bring about a better world, no they depend on the good old USA. And others of course, the UN, although they don't have the trained teams or the rescue equipment, and China and Russia, but who are one of the first on the scene, the Israelis.
They are sending a team called FIRST - Fast Israeli Rescue and Search Team, as well as IsraAid and a team from the IDF with specialized equipment that can raise buildings. The UN Secty Gen. in his statement about the disaster mentioned other teams but not the Israelis, which will also include a mobile hospital. Now that is a great response for a small country, but it is in our culture and unfortunately or fortunately we have the expertise.
All the anti-Americanism and anti-Israelism in Britain and Europe cannot erase the fact that the people you call are the Americans, and the Israelis in their own way often have more expertise than anyone else, they were present at the quakes in Greece and Turkey and did magnificent work. It reminds me of the character of Archie Bunker, who was anti-Semitic, but when he needed a doctor or a lawyer he wanted a Jew, a "Jew lawyer." Why? Because they are the best! When the chips are down and it's a matter of life and death or health and security, who ya gonna call, the Americans and the Israelis.
