Major famine, Civil wars, genocide, Aids epidemic, Ebola, poor health services

Those folks breed like roaches. Africa’s population is still supposed to double in 50 years.

Don’t laugh. Locusts are kosher. Some of the time.

Africa is never going to join the civilized world. Lord knows they’ve been given every chance, and untold amounts of money.

“Evangelical charity warns”

Maybe I’m just a cynic, but why do I feel like this is another “crisis” to fleece the gullible “compassionate”.?

“Africa is never going to join the civilized world.”

hmmm... but the African churches by and large are far more faithful to the gospel than the European ones...

These swarms occasionally move up into Israel, my daughter lived in Eilat during a huge swarm back in 2004-2006, they were everywhere including inside everyone’s houses. Couldn’t walk on the sidewalk without crunching them.

Spend a few months helping World Vision, Save the Children, Food for the Hungry or Samaritan's Purse with famine relief efforts on the ground in Africa, then get back to us with your conclusions.
