Haiti has been devastated by a massive 7.0-magnitude earthquake, the largest to strike the Caribbean nation in more than two centuries. Buildings have collapsed. Fires rage in the streets. The extent of the disaster is still unknown, but there are fears thousands of people may have died and tens of thousands homeless. We get the latest on Haiti, a country rocked by natural as well as political crises. We speak with journalist Kim Ives of Haiti Liberté and Haitian American novelist Edwidge Danticat, her family at the epicenter of the quake.

Why isn't the food moving to supply the people? Why is the U.S. armed services not taking the initiative to do so? If the U.S is unwilling to provide the much needed aid at hand that is "STAT" needed, they "SHOULD" move out of the way and allow other countries that were there before the U.S. Humanitarian Aid must reach this people. It's been more then a week now that they are in "EMERGENCY NEED!."
