All due respect, Rekna, that is an unsubstantiated and dubious assumption. Since when has the Bush administration shown any sensitivity to what the world media thinks of them?

I believe that once the scope of the disaster was understood, that more than anything resulted in the substantial increase. If "shame" had anything to do with it, I would argue that it is the shame of the world governments for sitting on their hands when 500,000 people were murdered with machetes in one month in Rwanda 10 years ago that has made them more responsive to catastrophe's in the present (especially if they don't involve any military action).
