sometimes 'payback' is good

with the single largest pledge of international aid i have heard of yet, kuwait offers $500 million in hurricane relief [bugmenot login]:

"It's our duty as Kuwaitis to stand by our friends to lighten the humanitarian misery and as a payback for the many situations during which Washington helped us through the significant relations between the two friendly countries"

that 'no blood for oil' crowd didn't see the karmic value of stopping saddam's violation on the sovereignty of its neighbor.
