U.K., U.S. groups raise donations; Israeli military sends experts to Typhoon Haiyan disaster zone, evaluate how to best deploy search, rescue and medicine teams. Good on them. The Great Satan is sending a Carrier as well; U.S., Britain sending warships to help Philippine relief efforts
Where are China? Russia? KSA? Venezuela? Iran? In the US individuals, schools, and communities are contributing to aid for the Philippines. I guess we are the evil nation.
Another Article Looks like a hundred grand so far from KSA and a cool $36 million from UAE. The rest can't speak for but hope they come to the plate as we help them out as well when the chips are down.
ok, so Israel sent a few people to the Phillipines. they should send 100 emergency rescue personnel & plane-loads of food and supplies.
The Philippines is unofficial U.S colony so the USA is supposed to help them. The USA ought to do much more for their Filipino servants. It is disgusting how U.S. foreign policy makers treat their allies. One only has to look at Syria to see how humanitarian Israel, KSA and the USA are. Actively aiding total destruction of Syrian nation, her people and infrastructure. Filipinos should learn a valuable lesson here. Americans are only using you as a bargaining cheap against Chinese. If they were true friends, they would do at least 10 times more to help you in this moment of need.
Nonsense. Here's a partial list of banned items: http://gisha.org/UserFiles/File/HiddenMessages/ItemsGazaStrip060510.pdf Before 2010 lethal items such as jam, potato chips and pasta were banned. I guess you could stab someone with a sharp piece of spaghetti... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goods_allowed_or_banned_for_import_into_Gaza#List_of_items Naturally Israel refuses to divulge which items are specifically banned. I wonder why that might be? National security?
Actually it is less than $10 million from the UAE it is 36 million in their currency. But point taken.
Don't worry, it's just another transparent piece of 'isn't Israel amazing!', propaganda from one of our resident hasbara apparatchiks.
The whole world is sending aid to the Philipines. Why is it news that Jews are sending aid? It would be news if they weren't.

Yeah, as if the U.S. would welcome China or Russia to the Philippines. They've most likely been told to stay away. That's our ambassador's job.
You're $17 trillion in debt because of the jaw-dropping incompetence and inept mismanagement of your economy by the greedy bastards on Wall Street, so don't try to sell us any altruism crap.
You do know, well maybe not, that the US military, particularly the Navy, patrols the shipping routes all over the world to keep your goods and everyone else's safe? And do you know the US does not ask for help in subsidizing this mission? Me personally, I'd make your sorry arse's pay big time or you'd be spending your own money protecting your oil and goods.
Actually we do spend our own money patrolling the oceans. Or did you think only America has a navy? Read and learn: http://jimisblogging.blogspot.co.uk/2008/01/what-does-royal-navy-do-today-their-own.html
