I fully admit, I don't know a lot about the humanitarian mess going on in Haiti since last year's devastating earthquake, but it's been over a year and the Haitian people are still living in some of the worst conditions imaginable. This "rescue" has truly been a disaster.

I ran across these earlier this month and thought they should be shared.  Satellite photos taken days before the earthquake and others taken recently show a massive increase in "tent cities" where disease (some of which was brought in by the UN) runs rampant. The before and after photos are staggering. Click each photo for a larger view. You're missing out on the magnitude of the problem if you just look at the previews.
