Nature isn’t always beautiful. It causes many devastating natural disasters as seen here in Haiti…
Heres an article I found on a news website… Rayner, Gordon. “Haiti earthquake: death toll may hit 200,000” earthquake: death toll may hit 200,000 Anger has turned to violence on the streets of Haiti as survivors lose patience with the painfully slow process of getting international aid after the earthquake that authorities say may have killed 200,000 people. Haiti’s shell-shocked government gave the United States control over its main airport to bring order to aid flights from around the world and speed relief to the impoverished Caribbean nation. Trucks piled with corpses have been carrying bodies to hurriedly excavated mass graves outside the city but thousands of bodies still are believed buried under rubble. “We have already collected around 50,000 dead bodies,” Paul Antoine Bien-Aime, Haiti’s interior minister told Reuters. “We anticipate there will be between 100,000 and 200,000 dead in total, although we will never know the exact number.” Around 40,000 bodies have been buried in mass graves.
