Rich Countries Stiff Africa

What a surprise!

"Africans ask rich nations for aid; Leaders want promises kept" by Lesley Wroughton, Reuters | September 23, 2008

What, WESTERN LEADERS BREAKING PROMISES?

Must have learned it from the Israelis!!!!

UNITED NATIONS - African leaders yesterday told rich countries to honor their aid commitments to help it tackle hunger and poverty, as a financial crisis threatens to cut into the aid budgets of its biggest donors.

Speaking during a UN meeting on Africa's development needs, Africa Union Chairman and Tanzanian President Jakaya Kikwete said he was concerned the financial turmoil in global markets would escalate, but that rich countries had made aid promises to Africa they should keep.

He said money was especially important at a time when many African economies are growing quickly and need to build transportation routes and increase power supply to get products to international markets.

When isn't it? And, ONCE AGAIN, this is for the GLOBALISTS!!!!

"Where there is a will, there is always a way," Kikwete said. "There may not be easy answers but I believe the US will overcome the crisis."

You sure about that? We aren't!!!!!!!

UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon urged concerted global action, warning that Africa was falling behind in goals to drastically reduce poverty by 2015 under the Millennium Development Goals, set by world leaders in 2000.

He said soaring food and fuel prices and the effects of climate change were new challenges facing Africa and its efforts to tackle poverty, hunger, and disease.

I'm really sick of this U.N. shitter and his damn globalist lies!!!!!!

And about that food problem?

WTF? Why hasn't ANYTHING BEEN DONE, shitter globalist!!!?

A $700-billion rescue plan by the US government for troubled Wall Street firms amounts to 10 times the aid Ban called for in his speech.

Yeah, GET IT FROM WALL STREET, asshole!!!!!!!!!!!!
