>>>Q: Could you give us an indication: there is a core group, there is the United Nations, there is a whole bunch of different groups coordinating - who is taking the leadership role on the humanitarian side of this? Did this come as a surprise to you, the American decision to create this special group? Also, perhaps a little bit on the bottlenecks for aid coming in: what is being done to try to address that issue?>>>

The Core group is easy to explain.

Would any American in his/her right mind think the US was going to turn $350 mm in aid over the Kofi Annan and his plundering relatives in the UN?
