Unless you've watched the "Treasure of Sierra Madre" with Humphrey Bogart, you won't appreciate the humor. Well, it seems that Indonesia would just as soon have us drop off all the supplies and the money, and leave. They don't want our military walking around with guns. They don't want us setting up any camps to expedite the relief efforts. They even have 'get out of town' date of March 24th. If not for the people in those areas that actually need the help, I'd recommend honoring Indonesia's request and leaving...now. No more money, no more equipment, no more supplies, no more personnel...just leave. Only in today's world of convoluted value systems and moral equivalency can the leader of a devastated country bite the helping hand of the most generous country on the face of the earth, and not be called on the carpet by the rest of the so-called 'world community'.

Nothing like taking your donations, and then stabbing you in the back. Maybe they would prefer the French Military instead of the US.
Or maybe they should adopt the Target's policy."Not allowing charities in the first place."
