World Reaction To Katrina: Sympathy To Jeers



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

An amazing range of responses are coming from around the world. The LA Times saw everything from concern to jeers -- and you know your country's image around the world must be at ROCK BOTTOM when a horrific disaster like this results in jeers. But USA Today's was the most eye-opening (and amusing, frankly). Canada's prime minister was rightly pilloried for saying nothing till late Wednesday. Some Islamic extremists said Katrina was part of their global jihad (they must be cribbing from Pat Robertson) and Venezuela's Chavez dubbed Bush "king of vacations."
