55. The Red Cross ran out of supplies 36 hours into the situation.

And I've already posted the interview with the director of Partners in Health about five times.

But, here it is again, the day the Marines showed up with their weapons and nothing else 8 days into this disaster:

You might also go read Laura Flanders, Thom Hartmann, The Black Commentator, Randall Robinson, MSF, The Nation, MotherJones. There have been plenty of posts to this board documenting this problem. If you are interested in this situation and not just in covering Robert Gates' @ss, you'd know about them already. :hi:
