Tsunami: How many Americans died? |
|
Or are presumed dead? I'm not hearing much about this, considering the fact that it must rival the number dead in 9-11.

2. You might have to ask another nation for that information. |
|
Sounds like our American embassy didn't think crisis intervention was part of the job.

4. I've heard that it's roughly 40-60, but no final count |
|
There are still about 400 "missing" Americans. That number keeps going down each day, seems odd but there it is.

7. And why are we not hearing the number? |
|
We are finially getting to the point where it is not exclusive 24/7 repeat of tsunami..over and over..but we still dont know the number of Americans missing or dead. I have not heard the question even addressed on tv news that i can get here in mexico..which is CNN World.
