Afghanistan Donates to Katrina Relief

President Hamid Karzai has signed a decree on behalf of the people of Afghanistan, allowing for the donation of $130,000 in disaster relief aid to the victims of Hurricane Katrina.

It's small when compared to the amount of U.S. foreign aid received by Afghanistan, but it's the thought that counts.

7 France didn't give any money, but they made an offer... Btw, nice site aaron. It is great how even some of the poorer countries chipped in, and some of the other richer countries...well...

8 I'd be happy if Afghanistan simply made a mutual defense agreement with India, just to piss off the Pakis.

9 This brings tears to my eyes and hope to my heart that our efforts in Afghanistan are paying off. May we have a long and successful partnership with the Afghani people.
