Jesus, other then world vision and the red cross, who would you recommend to send money to, to help.
My contacts in Japan are all recommending the Red Cross and Doctors Without Borders as the best immediate care providers.
The American Red Cross has close contacts in Japan and they are already doing great work there. Doctors Without Borders are the experts in dealing with situations where communications and the infrastructure have broken down, as they have in northeastern Japan.

This video was on the NBC News tonite too.
The body language is remarkable. No confusion.
Both saved, but one sent for medical care and one to a shelter. Moi's only
part, they should have been kept together.
Hope y'all enjoy

The first prominent nutcase Ive found claiming that the earthquake and tsunami were part of some grand plan is not some pseudo-Christian American, as I had expected, but Ishihara Shintaro, the nutcase governor of Tokyo Prefecture. Hes made some outrageous statements before (hes nearly a match for Palin or Bachman), but today he announced that the disaster was Heavens Punishment for selfish egoism. The tsunami would wash away the selfishness of the Japanese people.
石原慎太郎・東京都知事は１４日、東日本大震災に関して、「日本人のアイデンティティーは我欲。この津波 をうまく利用して我欲を１回洗い落とす必要がある。やっぱり天罰だと思う」と述べた。都内で報道陣に、大震 災への国民の対応について感想を問われて答えた。
発言の中で石原知事は「アメリカのアイデンティティーは自由。フランスは自由と博愛と平等。日本はそんな ものはない。我欲だよ。物欲、金銭欲」と指摘した上で、「我欲に縛られて政治もポピュリズムでやっている。 それを（津波で）一気に押し流す必要がある。積年たまった日本人の心のあかを」と話した。一方で「被災者の 方々はかわいそうですよ」とも述べた。

We all love the Governor of Tokyo (he comes out with the most interesting news bites) other popular ones:
In replying to a question about the actions by a rugby team gang raping some girls he said "At least some men in Japan have some vigor"
On the declining birth rate " Women should remember that they are firstly baby making machines"
the list goes on and on I paraphrase as Japanese does not actually translate well anyway.
He actually said divine punishment, that was classic. That is not a common belief here at all.
Anyway interesting posts here Moi621 keeps bugging me to check them out for some reason....
