      So what? Cutting it all at once for no good reason is premeditated mass murder.

      If you didn’t like it the solution was replacing and displacing it with something else in a thoughtful careful manner, not this, this is pointlessly induced collapse.

        Imperialism is the thing that makes this help needed in the first place. Its naive to think they care one inch about who dies from a hunger that they created themselves

          The purity test means just a little bit less when a whole lot of folks that could be not dying are dying.

            Using the purity test argument to defend the CIA is a bit of a stretch by any humane standard

              So many people dying and all you care about is how it ties back to another government agency, don’t begin to tell me that humane means anything to you.

                Do you know why they are dying, in the first place? If you starve a population then give bread crumbs to them, you are not the good guy in the situation

    Video is amazing and well worth watching:

    Viral ‘Last Breath Of The Confederacy’ Speech Puts Louisiana Man On Political Map

    We starving Cuba, we bombed Nigeria, we holding Zimbabwe and Zambia hostage for their minerals. We don’t want to give them AIDS support. The pro-lifers that say all life is special, y’all letting kids die of AIDS. What part of your Bible say that? Point out the scripture. I think everybody would love to see it. And we would love to see y’all in the midterms.
