Africa: Millions more will stave

BBC has a series on the starvation in various African countries...
Of course, they still complain that " Ten pre-school children die every minute from malnutrition and this number has not changed since the early 1980s despite global promises."...

What's wrong with this statement?
Well, first of all since the numbers haven't increased but the population has increased since 1980, that means the rate of children dying has gone down.
Second, it ignores wars and tyrants and corrupt governments are behind malnutrition deaths
Third, it implies these deaths are "despite global promises", i.e. the assumption that Big Brother UN is the answer...

Here is another quote: "For instance, east Kenya last year faced a famine. In the west of the country there was an excess of corn, but this was shipped to Europe because neither the means nor the money was available to get the corn to those starving in the east."

Ah, but why was the corn shipped out? The corn had to go EAST to be shipped, so obviously there were roads.

And the statement "because neither the means nor the money" implies no roads...but there are roads and paths...ox carts can carry grain across small paths, and rivers can be used to ship grain...and there is money, indeed, one suspects much of the foreign aid was siphoned off by corrupt officials LINK

And the food shipped out? Notice that they say there was no "money" available? Yes, it's probably in swiss bank accounts of the elites...

In Ireland, the British shipped corn out of that country while a million starved because the main food, potatoes, had been destroyed in a famine...

Like in today's Kenya, the REAL story is that there is no WILL to feed these people, or to spend aid money on improving the infrastructure or farms...
