Pockets of looting flared across the capital. Small bands of young men and teenagers with machetes roaming downtown streets helped themselves to whatever they could find in wrecked homes.
"They are scavenging everything. What can you do?" said Michel Legros, 53, as he waited for help to search for seven relatives buried in his collapsed house. A Russian search-and-rescue team said the general insecurity was forcing them to suspend their efforts after nightfall.
I'm afraid that once the wrecked homes are cleaned out they will go after the survivors. Once the survivors are picked clean they will then go after the aid workers. That is a bad situation that might get even worse depending on how wide spread these gangs are.This statement from Ban-Ki-moon set off my fear meter:
"Obviously, that is only a drop in the bucket in the face of the massive need, but the agency will be scaling up to feed approximately 1 million people within 15 days and 2 million people within a month," he said. The U.N. would set up 15 food-distribution centers, he said.
The WFP already had food warehoused in Haiti before the quake, and would be flying in much more. Spokeswoman Emilia Casella noted the regular food stores in the city had been emptied by looters.
I really hope they actually have 15 days to start feeding a large number of the people because I don't think this situation will keep until then. Most people have lost everything and maybe haven't eaten in 50 hours. For some reason this Ban Ki-Moon comment got me to think about Nostradamus and this quatrain:
Quatrain 2.75
The voice of the insolent bird,
Above the respirator pipe from the floor:
So high will the wheat come to rise,
That man towards men shall become a Man-eater.
The insolent bird could mean that weird near earth object that passed on Wednesday. It is described as a "mystery object" in this article.
Asteroid 2010 AL30, discovered by the LINEAR survey of MIT's Lincoln Laboratories on Jan. 10, will make a close approach to the Earth's surface to within 76,000 miles on Wednesday January 13 at 12:46 pm Greenwich time (7:46 EST, 4:46 PST).
This is the weird object AL30.
The Haiti Earthquake happened fairly close to the time that this object passed the earth.

Nostradamus
The "respirator pipe from the floor" could be the earthquake itself if you think about it. I mean the earthquake did happen below the earths surface and the destruction was above the sea floor.
The "so high the wheat come to rise" could be a vision of the destruction of the white buildings and rubble of Port-Au-Prince that in Nostradamus' dark water could easily look like piles of threshed wheat.
The last part of the quatrain is what I hope does not come to pass from this prophesy. But 15 days is an awfully long time when so many people will soon be starving and looking for food. I am afraid that things could get far worse in the next few days.
