Any judgement of Michael Haley’s function in the Horn of Africa must have knowledge of the nature of the situation there. Millions of people in the Horn of Africa are trapped in a hunger emergency as the region lurches from crisis to crisis: the longest drought in recorded history has given way to rains and flash flooding. Food and energy prices are high as the impact of the conflict in Sudan destabilizes the region.

There are people in this nation who are starving to death as we jump from crisis to crisis. Shouldn't that be the obligation of Africa to help the millions of people that they report are starving in Africa, not just South Africa.

According to the UN 10 March 2023: Horn of Africa hunger emergency: ‘129,000 looking death in the eyes’

They provide this picture with their article:

Which is a far cry from the millions you claim you made in the Horn of Africa. Are you suggesting that the numbers have ballooned dramatically in less than a year? The sad thing is that we may all be starving to death because of the assaults upon the farmers of the world, over concerns for climate change.

Sorry, I am far more concerned about what is happening here.

BTW, they got what they wished, freedom from apartheid. Their troubles are all self-inflicted, just as our freedoms are in jeopardy from the election thefts being foisted upon this nation.
