Why are we angry with the Philippines?

Why are we angry with the Philippines? 07/23/2004 11:42 PM

While I've been "oot and aboot" (as the Canadians say) with N505WT the natives seem to have become restless and angry with the Philippines.  From what I read the Filipinos were in Iraq on a "humanitarian" mission.  One of their guys was kidnapped so they went home.  So now we Americans are pissed off that they caved into the demands of the kidnappers/beheaders.  None of the newspaper articles that I saw, however, questioned the original purpose.  Though some Iraqis appear on CNN to complain that they don't have air-conditioning and 24/7 running water it is hard to see them as a hardship case in a world where many people have never had A/C or running water.  Shouldn't "humanitarian" missions go to places where either (a) folks are really doing badly, (b) folks are genuinely grateful for assistance, (c) folks are living right next door to us (charity begins at home), or (d) all of the above?

For those of you that have been to the Philippines and traveled or stayed outside of hotels understand how antiquated the telecommunications infrastructure is. In the past people would be on list for many years waiting for a landline. This is one of the reasons cellular service in the Philippines is so popular. Well using some old techniques some individuals have been rounded up and put in jail for scamming the phone company out of some very serious money. [The Register]
