Yes, it was.  Other than that, I think Mike Godwin was right on.
Deductibility outside the United States is incredibly complicated, and
saying something other than "some donors in
other nations can do something similar, sometimes, to some extent" is
probably a bad idea.

Deductibility inside the US can even be complicated.  For the people
who really care about it, they can find out the details from their tax
advisor (or through self-study, if they're feeling masochistic).
