No-one can dispute the disparity of consumption between the developed and third world countries , and perhaps one of the outcomes of all this will be an introspection leading to action in this area . And it has always been so , and everyone hopefully agrees that elimination of poverty is a goal to be achieved in the future . Yet in what country and under which "regime" were those studies & findings conducted ? And thru which channels of media and infrustructure are these statistics and information disseminated to the world that you publish ? In America perhaps ? I think it also good to mention along side such fact-finding , that the amounts of human aid and assistance that pours forth from America already is huge , the humanitarian workers , nurses , doctors (some killed recently in Yemen ? ) are in everyone of these countries in great numbers as we speak . And they always seem to get overlooked. We are not just a military prescence in these countries . Along with the burning of the oil fields , agression and murders in Kuwait...and the 10yrs of war Saddam conducted against Iran with 100's of thousands dead . There is also the destruction of one of the world's largest wetlands in the lower Mesopotamian River basin to consider , and the persecution of the Marsh Arabs that were living there by Saddam the Sadistic: amarappeal.com You really think that Saddam is the fellow you want leading the charge of the redistribution of wealth ?implementing conservation programs that in the end will save not only the country of Iraq , but Iran , Jordan and all the others in the region? I don't think so ... the burning of the Kuwaiti oil fields should have left an indelible picture in your mind...or one would think so. regards M
