Default countries offering aid to the u.s

Im reading this article and its pretty interesting to see what help these countries are offering.
http://www.cnn.com/2005/US/09/03/kat...aid/index.html
I found these two funny

"NETHERLANDS: Will provide teams for inspecting dykes and for identifying victims if there is a formal request from the United States. It will also send a frigate from Curacao to New Orleans shortly to provide emergency assistance, the government said. "

they are sending teams to inspect dykes..


"VENEZUELA: President Hugo Chavez, a vocal critic of the United States, offered to send cheap fuel, humanitarian aid and relief workers to the disaster area.

cheap fuel

The U.S. gave nothing to Indonesia?

How come everything you say is either completely ignorant, stupid, racist, or just flat out ridiculous?

Why aren't you banned yet?

What I would like to know is, why isn't this on the Nightly network news shows. I have only heard about it on National Public Radio.
