Reader has questions regarding current issues

(UNEDITED)1. The computer states that the population in Pakistan in 2010 is 170353500. The number of citizens affected with the flooding is stated as 3 million. Has there been any news of those people helping their own countrymen?

2. On the Sean Hannity TV program when the guest speaking of the Mosque planned to be built near the 9/11 center should not find objection because of America's "Great Religious Tolerance Policies". My question is: Where was this "Religious Tolerance" when Mitt Romney was running for President, and the continuing intolerance for this religion?
