Cuts in aid in countries such as Haiti, Niger and Mali result in death through diseases which could have been treated, starvation which could have been avoided and massive levels of child malnutrition, suffering and death which could have been avoided because people stopped caring.

Promise you that whatever you can name I can show you we spent more money on our little adventure in Iraq. I'd rather have aid than war anytime.

and foreign aid i would just like us to go shoulder to shoulder with other countries like us now with aid instead of trying to take the lead role all the time who do we still think we are ?
But we didn't just destroy a dictator we destroyed an army and a political organisation that acted as a bulwark against the growth of Iran. Iran is trying to put in place an Islamic Republic in Iraq that will leave the countries minorities far worse off and hasten a new civil war as well as bring in the religious oppression of women Iraq didn't have.
Gassing the Kurds? Are you talking about Churchill?
DawZi wrote:i meant to reply before that about Churchill allegedly gassing Arabs? i heard about that before and looked into there just allegations but he been quoted and admitted he would morally have no problem using gas to end wars quickly in order to save lives of our own soldiers
