The death toll following the earthquake in Haiti could top 100,000, Jean-Max Bellerive, the country's prime minister, said on Wednesday.
The final death toll could be "well over 100,000," the prime minister told the US television channel after his Caribbean nation was struck on Tuesday by a 7.0 magnitude quake.
"I hope that is not true, because I hope the people had the time to get out. Because we have so much people on the streets right now, we don't know exactly where they were living.
"But so many, so many buildings, so many neighborhoods totally destroyed, and some neighborhoods we don't even see people, so I don't know where those people are."

Ive been shocked at lack of coverage on news
100,000 deaths :(

If this is the case i don't believe the poor country will get as much aid as the tsunami hit countries did either. The UN has pledged $10m FFS.
tsunami + SE asia = sexy
earthquake + Haiti = minger
earthquake + Haiti = minger
You may not be far off mark
Some lives seem to be seen as more important than others
Imagine if 100,000 had been killed in france, italy or usa
It would be blanket coverage on our news channels

It's natural they would overestimate to get maximum relief money.
A lot more perverted middle aged Brits were in s/e asia at the time of the tsunami.
as the US overestimated the twin towers deaths as well so they could go gung ho
theres 800,000 innocent Iraqis and afghans died, makes the twin towers look like nothing. Does anyone care?
anyway back to the point. that wee little earthquake in Italy last year was treated like armageddon, while this one will be forgotten in a week
100,000 dead would make it the 4th deadliest earthquake in the last hundred years.

This is very depressing stuff on ITV news just now.
its not natural to have 5 million people (or whatever the figure is) in one small city. especially in such a poor place with no way to cope with disasters. unless people stop breeding like rabbits the world is doomed.
just what I thought canaryboy, for the 2nd day running. Despicable.

I haven't mocked the dead. That's a disgusting claim, if there's a motivation other than pure wickedness for telling such lies, than let's hear it.
well we'll agree to disagree then
keep up the glib comments!

Mocking the dead or trying to be a comedian about a natural disaster? Take your pick. Pretty pathetic either way.

Earthquakes on this scale happen around 18 times a year
8 - 8.9 one a year
9 - 9.9 one every twenty years
10+ never been recorded

And that is backing up, and wisely so. However many people have died, be it 1000 or 100,000, they all deserve sympathy and so do their families, what they don't deserve is social recluses ejaculating over supossed death rates and attempting to turn these personal, tragic deaths into armoury in their ill-educated and frivolous views on contemporary politics.
yeah its the 'done thing' to wait a few days before joking about it
what they don't deserve is social recluses ejaculating over supossed death rates
erm what?
so commenting on the number of dead is wrong?
how is anyone ejaculating as you say?
