Wyclef Jean Urges International Help For Haiti

<p>&nbsp;</p><p>The following is a statement that was sent to GlobalGrind from Wyclef Jean in the wake of the horrible 7.0 hurricane that struck Haiti on Tuesday night:</p><p>Haiti faced a natural disaster of unprecedented proportion, an earthquake unlike anything the country has ever experienced.</p><p>I cannot stress enough what a human disaster this is, and idle hands will only make this tragedy worse. The over 2 million people in Port-au-Prince tonight face catastrophe alone. We must act now.</p><p>President Obama has already said that the U.S. stands &lsquo;ready to assist&rsquo; the Haitian people. The U.S. Military is the only group trained and prepared to offer that assistance immediately. They must do so as soon as possible. The international community must also rise to the occasion and help the Haitian people in every way possible.&rdquo;</p>
