Japan cannot buy support from the American or British Red Cross, they need people to donate to them, so they can raise the money to send more bodies over.
If the money was going directly into Bank of Japan or government of Japan's back pocket, then I see your point, but it doesn't it goes to the charities which can then get the bodies and supplies to help on a practical level.
