What is starting is the string of "pointing fingers" syndrome and I think Day wanted a thread that was about raising funds and awareness rather than discussing the political "so-and-so promised but didn't deliver" kind of discussions.

So talking about the money involved right now, to me...just seems
inappropriate. Let us start with support for those who have just lost
their life, loves, homes, and children.

Hmmm I did not get that from the OP, rather that discussion of aid money involved "....just seems inappropriate".
Therefor starting a second "appropriate" thread.
Thank you for explaining Daywalker's intentions, I thought it was quite jarring and inexplicable.
