Default How do you feel about this? (Iran)

I was just listening to the news and it was one of the first things that came into my head ... There are already 25.000 people dead in Iran cause of the earthshock !!!!!!!!!!!! In USA there died 3000 people on September 11th ... They still speak about USA but will they speak about all those victims in Iran withing 2 monts ... I don't think so and I think that's bad.
Of course the cause is different ... nature or attacks but the results stay the same ... people died ...

there's been plenty of coverage on it over here on the news and other media.

earthquakes happen, only the mortality rates change and this happens to be a really bad one but i don't think anythign has ever happened like 9/11 hence y it was/ is such a big deal.

i dunno if this is true or not but someone told me that Iran has told Israel or jewish people or somethign like that not to come to help them cos they dont want their help???

I'd say no - I'd imagine international tentions is the last thing on their mind at the moment.

yeah it SHOULD be last thing on their minds at the moment but there's no reason for my mate to make it up and i wouldn't confidently put money on it not being true.

No true but if it would happen in Belgium for example it wouldn't have been the same way then when it happened in the USA ...

http://www.jewishpeople.net/nomisnetwork.html They'll except help from anyone apart from Israel it seems. Although the only source for this seems to be the Jewish news

Vallie, it didn't only have to do with the fact that it was in America! They attacked the Twin Towers, 2 of the largest buildings in America in hijacked aircrafts with people aboard. It was the sheer audacity of the attack in addition to America never having a terrorist attack on American soil. And don't forget, it was a miracle that "only" 3000 people died in New York, on any given day, over 100.000 could have been in those towers, including people who worked there and tourists. Of course Iran is an unbelievable tradegy and I hope that the aid that goes there helps, but you can't compare a natural disater to a man-made attack like 9/11.

Now, just to make it clear !!!!!!!! I hope no one misunderstands me ... I do feel terrible about the attacks on September 11th too !!!! It shouldn't have happened and tooo many people were killed! I know that and it stays sad !! I also don't mean they talk too much about the USA ... no, I just think there won't be that much talking about what happened in Iran withing months ... Not too forget 25.000 people (and probably more were killed!) As I said, the cause was different and I realise that !!!!
But doesnt anyone agree that the USA feels pretty more important then other countries... Do you think if that saaaaame tragedy would happen anywhere else it would be the same afterwards?
