The US military delayed flights to Haiti because the Airport was a cluster, and the Military organized things so it would run smoother. Organizing an airport so it can function is most certainly aid related.

As to the claim that the US has more troops than needed to assist, define what too many is. Despite the US military doing a lot of good in areas where they go to assist in disaster relief, to some people 2 personnel in US uniform are too many.

As to Haiti growing up? How many decades would they like?
