PEARL HARBOR (NNS) -- The U.S. Pacific Fleet is deploying personnel and units to provide humanitarian aid in the wake of natural disasters that have stricken the Philippines, American Samoa and Indonesia.
The United States extends its sincere condolences to the people of these areas in the wake of the recent natural disasters.
The United States has military capabilities positioned in the affected regions that are ready to support emergency relief efforts and minimize human suffering. Because of the forward deployed presence of the U.S. military, it is poised to help as much as possible

I have a feeling (unlike our president)that Samoa, Indonesia, and the Philippines aren't looking to Saudi Arabia, Venezuela, Cuba, North Korea, or Iran for support.

Nobody does it better...US Armed Forces!!!
