The scale of this disaster is huge. Unfortunately, this region spawned the Taliban and doesn't exactly tug at the Western world's heartstrings. There will be no groundswell of private aid for this calamity when men from this area plant roadside bombs to kill our soldiers. Pretty hard to get past that. I don't see a massive amount of aid coming from predominantly Muslim countries either.
