Do you even think OBL is sending any of his Millions to help his Islamic Brothers out.

Nope he's doing ben all to help after from helping them to fight no doubt.

My company, with a net profit of $2.5 BILLION canadian for fiscal year 2004, donated a whopping $150,000. They'll match employee donations to a further $100,000.

Sad.

3 million USD from my company plus local staff freed up to help plus full matching of employee donations in most countries (no limit set - currently at around a million if not slightly more - c. 100k employees worldwide). Also all cash has already been channelled directly through the local operating companies in the countries concerned so as to be targetted most effectively via trusted personnel and NGO partners. This is all so far and the numbers are still growing daily.

Also our companies in the region are supporting local relief efforts with e.g. free fuel, water and other activities.

And the occasional oddity - like an internal launch of a big reorganisation features a wave motif heavily in the "publicity" material - what would have been spent on changing this has been donated instead and a note added to explain this and to acknowledge the sensitivity.

And all staff are accounted for, which is a relief.

Sometimes this company can do things OK...
