Maybe they think the Greeks are big enough to take it ...
Fine, let's leave it there; and hope that Greeks, Turks, Italians whatever they happen to be, come together in a moment of crisis and do what's best for people.

Sorry, but I think I posted to soon.
The Greeks and Italians still did well with the SAR effort.
HOWEVER!
Not knowing how many passengers were on board is just way too dodgy. The passnger manifest has to be correct and the numbers reconciled by the issueing Port Authority and the Captain should not have left Port until this was done.
There are questions to be answered here. I am certain more will be said about this, and I think a lot of mud slinging is going to be thrown towards the Greek Port Authorities, the Captain and Ship's Operator. Brace yourself girl, because the bash fest is about to begin!
