I, on the other hand, blame the food crisis on Third World socialist kleptocracy, which is kept alive by aid from First World countries thinking they're being humanitarian.
france out of Africa... UN out of the United States....
France is braying at the moon again. What a shocker.
France ignored the plight of the Iraqi people. Why are they so concerned about these people now? I'm sure they've gotten their share of the African gold mines already.
Why is the left so friendly ? Could it be they know the truth about yellowcake, and if it were to be made public ......Hmmmmm..
They were to busy ripping us off in the Oil For Food scandal. They used some of the stolen money to send to Niger, then tell us we were neglectful in our responsibility!! Let's just invade France and kick their asses!
So, that's where the bulk of our tax money is going - to feed faraway strangers.
Niger is in about the same condition as one of the other wrecks of a nation -Haiti- that share the distinction of both being former French colonies.
The FRENCH alone should look after their "African children"...
Semper Fi
WOW........ really generous. George Soros gives more to the dems.
STFU: Shut the France Up. If France thought something should have been done, they should have done it. We didn't need their permission to go into Iraq. They don't need our permission to go into Niger.
It's my fault. Well, me and George Bush.
It's too bad Africa is such a mess, it has great possibilities. Many of the people are good and deserve a break. The mess in Africa is of their own making.
Any more money there just goes either down the toilet or into Swiss banks.
Niger....yellow cake....Wilson.....Iraq...........
That's the total of their wine profit for the year. They will be giving the aid in euros because it is only the French buying the wine.
"I'm happy to see that France is the biggest donor, but other countries must do the same," Foreign Minister Philippe Douste-Blazy said after flying in to northern Niger for a brief visit to a mud village where France had sent boxes of medicine."
I'm confused.....I thought they were STARVING and needed FOOD.
Fruck you Fance. It was your freakin' colony. You don't have these problems in formerly British colonies.
Is there anything France touches that doesn't turn to sh!t? (Africa, IndoChina, Haiti...)
Dammit! I thought Bolton went to the UN to solve all these problems, and look here, he can't even solve the Niger problem in his first half day! He's got no juice, because he doesn't have the blessing of Ted Kennedy, Reid, and Kerry!
The fruits of eurotrash colonialism are again being brought to the fore.
Aid workers have blamed donor nations ...
And the American middle class taxpayer is again left holding the bag.
