National Catastrophe

While the military in Chile is trying to keep order after a massive earthquake....now we have Europe going through it's worst winter and storms in living memory.

Paris, France (CNN) -- Western Europe went into recovery mode Monday after winter storm Xynthia battered at least six countries, knocking out power, disrupting transportation and leaving at least 58 people dead, authorities said.
Hardest hit was France, where at least 47 people were killed, according to the Interior Ministry.

French President Nicolas Sarkozy visited the departments of Charente-Maritime and Vendee on the nation's west coast Monday, where the extra-tropical cyclone hit.

"It's a national catastrophe," French Prime Minister Francois Fillon said Sunday. "Many people drowned, surprised by the rapid rise of the water."
The combination of hurricane-force winds and high tide inundated parts of the coastal region.

Honestly, I wonder how many "National catastrophes" the world can have all at once? We still have all our rescue workers and aid in Haiti, now what about Chile....and now what about Europe? How can we help all the people that need help? Where do we get all the money for all the aid the world needs?

Is it becoming obvious that we need a savior?
