Did you notice when the US was doing food drops in Afgan, that the pics on TV did not show one skinny face in the whole country. More BS and propa g. No I didn't see that. I saw newspaper photos.. people looked pretty skinny to me... People haven't been starving to death though really in Afghanistan. They've had the brains to get up and move before that happens. A lot of the people there especially in the north were traditionally nomadic anyway. US food drops however, were total BS. Especially as some parcels are said to have looked the same as cluster bombs or landed in areas with mines and the food supplied was trivial. David
