The only way I can see doing that is if we were to cut off ALL relations good or bad. Typhoon hits....don't call us anymore! People starving.....oh well. Genocide.....not our business nor do we care.

In personal lives we find with close friends that if they need a meal, one is waiting and if something breaks loose while we're out...we've got their back. How many of our friends are in Afghanistan right now? Are, or were, in Iraq?

Also, when we do a food drop on a starving country it would be nice to know that it's being distributed to the people and NOT distributed among some petty Dictator and his thugs.

Now if we're in the business of handing out favors fine....if not, then it all stops.

Have a good one!:s4:
