The world's aid to the starving North Koreans goes to the fast life of the fat cats in Pyongyang.
The world's aid to the starving Somalian's went to Aidad's power base.
The world's aid to the starving Zimbabweans will go to Mugabe's power base.
For full stomachs in Zimbabwe, empty a clip into Mugabe.
