Preval has authorized the creation of the Red Helmets

[nadinbrzezinski]

and no, he does not have the ability (read internal logistcs and organization) to distribute help.

Lead in this is taken by France in the UN. And now watching the push for the Marshall Plan... on CNN... this is not disaster capitalism... or at least not in the pure form.

Oh and for the Red Helmets, here you go

No, they will not cover these details in the US press for some silly reason. I guess they believe Americans don't care or comprehend complex issues.

1. Having trouble with the link

It sent me to a front page with many articles (all in Spanish), and I can't figure out which of them you are refering to.

What is the title of the article in Spanish?

Here is an article about the Red Helmets from a Russian source. Are these the same ones?

2. Here you go

Préval, incapaz de coordinar la ayuda, avaló la creación de los “cascos rojos”

Look under Mundial. lower left corner.

Yes they do a good job covering this, but their web site portal SUCKS... less than the UN one though.

Of course, there is one team I know of, that already wears Red Helmets. That's the Tlatelolco Rescue Brigade, AKA The Mole Men of Mexico.
