andsome Posted September 15, 2005 Report Share Posted September 15, 2005 Just seen the evening TV news. People are still starving in Niger, and now there is a hint that the United nations is considering scaling down the feeding programme. The reason given is that the harvest is due in during the next few weeks. This is ridiculous. Thousands of people have borrowed food to feed their staving children and must now pay it back. PLEASE go on line or telephone and make another donation to the aid agencies, who at least are trying to do more than the UN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's even worse than your posting ref Bush in another thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
