Arab Nations Need To Help

By Our readers on Sun, Jan 27, 2013

SYRIAN REFUGEES are fleeing the war in Syria. There are over 40,000 on the Turkish border in camps and many more in Jordan and Turkey. Everyone wants the United States to help send aid.

I have a question.

Where are the rich Arab countries of Saudi Arabia or Dubai or Kuwait? Why are they not concerned or helping their own Arab people?

The United States should not be expected to help in every crisis. What is the UN doing?

Israel was our only ally to send direct help to Hurricane Sandy victims with immediate on the ground aid stations. Too bad they are not allowed to help the Syrian people because of the Arab hatred of Israel.
