I would tend to agree with your sentiments, but it seems that all too often the U.S. is blamed for either taking action or not taking action. The view of a lot of people is that we seem to upset everyone no matter what we do and that all the money we spend offering aid could be better spent back home where many people also need help.
No easy answer to these issues and they can be debated endlessly with all sides having valid arguments. I hope everyone has a great weekend.
