I think you are being unreasonably critical, because you don't have a clue of the all the things that need to be done to mobilize a response. Five days is not bad at all considering that the first responders, state emergency personnel and National Guard, were knocked out themselves. The majority of National Guard personnel must be contacted by phone and notified to report for duty, phone lines were down in a lot of places, and many of them probably had their own personal emergencies to deal with. That is just one example of how time consuming the mobilization is.


In Britain we have an airmobile brigade that can be deployed anywhere in the world in 24hrs.
The US military not up to that?


That's the Pentagon's call- go ask Rumsfeld.
