Very well said arahat!

Completely agree with what you were saying.

I have already made few comments previously. Hence to summarize:

• If somebody does not feel like helping these individuals, they do not have to. Nobody is forcing them to


• Comparison between unfortunate events is not appropriate, despite of geographic location


• Yes, there are infinite number of causes in the world which may be more heart-touching than this one


• If you agree with above point, I recommend you find those causes and help whole-heartedly as much as you can


• Even if nobody helps, these individuals will be able to carry-on. This is not the end of the world for them


• Just like arahat said, please do not display sick mentality by pointing fingers at each other and by comparing

I am getting sick of some of the rude comments written in this thread. Looks like these people are writing just because they are proud of their opinion, and they may be arguing only to make the point to demonstrate that they are smart and right! I doubt if these individuals have any sympathy whatsoever for anybody except for themselves. 

Well, everybody has a right to say or think just the way they want to ... so be it. Hence I am going to keep quiet. Tired of this!
