[color="#4169e1"][i]If you didnt know by now, this weekend Japan was rocked by a 8.9/9.0 earthquake that was followed by a tsunami. Over 10,000 people have been reported dead, an entire fishing village has been reported missing, over 1.4 million households have gone without water since the quake and 1.9 million households without electricity. Recent news revealed that the 2nd nuclear reactor has just exploded.

This whole scenario has left Japan in a rather helpless state, officials have called a state of emergency and have requested aid from other countries. I was wondering as an International community, could we join hands and donate a bit of money to the Japanese Red-Cross or send over clothing or blankets...or something?

Please Share your thoughts.

1) >< just realised this thread is in the wrong spot (mod, please move)
2) ----> a link to donate to the NGO that you feel your money should be best spent. http://news.yahoo.com/s/yblog_newsroom/20110311/wl_yblog_newsroom/japan-earthquake-and-tsunami-how-to-help

25,000 blankets have already been airlifted to Japan by India. 4 Naval ships with relief materials & rescue teams are ready and waiting for the green signal from Japanese Government. Hope they act Quickly.

My thoughts and prayers are with all involved, Lets hope that the reactor doesnt go nuclear, that will devastate the country for years, not just the time that it will take to repair the damage.
