Go look at this picture of Kerry talking to a group of people. Go look at it NOW.
Posted by sheilathe t-shirt is fabulous. kerry looks like he's in pain. or de-nile.
the earthquake in iran... they didn't build for quakes. the soil structure and faults are different... and that area has a tremendous number of quakes. however, it puts alot of things in perspective.
the quake of slightly more than 6 on the richter just offshore california killed 2 people, perhaps 3. the quake in iran was closer to 7 and has literally killed many, many more... and the after shocks from the iranian quake have been more powerful....
NEIC has a great website which shows all of the current quakes for a 7 day period. quakes are not rare. they're very common and happen almost daily.

The government is lackadaisacal about the safety of its own citizens and then expects the West to help clean up their mess.
