And please Hookers, you didn't know we knew about the Tsunami for ages? It was like 9/11...we just decided to let it happen after having known about it forever.

it was an international agency that knew about the tsunami, it wasn't strictly an American agency. And my bad, I thought Indonesia (it was afterall the first country to be hit) had the most casualties and damage, but that lack of knowledge has nothing to do with what f*cking country I am from. The tsunami itself was not known maybe about 30 minutes before the first wave hit, although seismic activity could have been tracked for years. Thailand was the one that played down the warnings, thinking it was a false alarm. If anything here, the Asian governments are more to blame because of their lack of preparation and warning systems around the Indian ocean. The asian governments did know of potential earthquakes in the Indian ocean for quite some time, but did not know when and where.
