Iraqi War/Tsunami Hypocracy

Why have we not heard cries of "what is the plan for the tsunami relief effort" or "how long are our troops going to be there?" I'd also like to know how the left will react when (I don't have a death wish here, but this is inevitable) military members die due to the relief effort? Will they say it's just not worth it-that one person dying is too many and that we should pull out? Will they ask how many members of our military must die before relief is established? The reason I ask is...Saddam Hussein killed millions of people, but we shouldn't be in Iraq because of it. Only a few hundred thousand died in the tsunami, it's no big deal...right?
