Here we go again.
The head of the World Health Organization (WHO) has criticized the global community’s focus on the war in Ukraine, arguing that crises elsewhere, including in his home country of Ethiopia, are not being given equal consideration, possibly because the people affected are not white.
Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus questioned whether “the world really gives equal attention to black and white lives” given that ongoing emergencies in Ethiopia, Yemen, Afghanistan and Syria had garnered only a “fraction” of the concern for Ukraine.
“I need to be blunt and honest that the world is not treating the human race the same way,” he said. “Some are more equal than others.”
Last month Tedros said there was “nowhere on Earth where the health of millions of people is more under threat” than Ethiopia’s Tigray region.
Coincidentally, Tedros’ family comes from the Tigray region.
The WHO boss is entitled to care about the Tigray region and likewise Europeans are entitled to care more about Ukraine. Perhaps objectively everyone should care about everything equally, but people do have kinship biases and it’s not racist to have them.
If it’s racist for Europeans to focus on Ukraine, it’s also racist for Tedros to focus on Tigray.
Earlier this year the Ethiopian government sent a letter to the WHO accusing Tedros of “misconduct” after his sharp criticism of the war and humanitarian crisis in the country.
It said Tedros was using his office “to advance his political interest at the expense of Ethiopia” and said he continued to be an active member of the Tigray People’s Liberation Front.
Tedros was Ethiopia’s foreign minister and health minister when the TPLF dominated the country’s ruling coalition.
I’m sure that has nothing to do with it.
Westman says
No, no , no!!! John Kerry says it is Climate Change which is being neglected and it affects the lives of all colors(colours?).
I am soooo sorry, “Dr Tedros” of The WHO, to be concerned about a Ukraine-Russian conflict which has the potential to kill everyone I love if some official or military power mis-steps. I’ll try do better during the next potential nuclear war. Right now, I’m more concerned with Dr Strangelove – though you both seem a bit off-kilter.
Dave says
‘Climate Change, Global Warming’. If I remember, correctly, from what I heard and what was pushed in the late 60s and 70s…the earth should be either a cold desolate planet or a desolate hot desert by now. The earth goes through climate changes periodically and I doubt that ‘man’ has an absolutely major impact on these changes, although, re-cycling is a good thing, if only to help eliminate trash build-up. They talk about the ‘Green New Deal’, but we do not have the technology, at this time, to make it a reality. Electric cars are no more than a ploy being used to make us ‘think’ we are doing the right thing.
Westman says
Electric cars, yeah. Can you imagine how many repair scams there will be with EVs?
I can save my wife from the car dealer’s excessive repairs on her combustion engine auto because I understand how everything in it works, how to repair it, and when it doesn’t need repair. When someone scam quotes repairs, she asks me about it and it doesn’t go any further.
Our auto service repair bill for 2 cars, 16 years = $750. Had to have a clutch replaced, didn’t have a hoist.
Now imagine the EV. No available manuals, lethal voltages, continual revisions, and a toxic battery pack that won’t last 10 years. A repair scammer’s dream.
And you’re right on, Dave. We don’t know the extent of our contribution, we don’t have the technology to stop Global Warming, fill out the “Green New Deal”, and the biggest polluters have no intention of cooperating. The entire world is being scammed into some bizarre
hybrid Globalism.
The homelessness in former high-tech job cities? That’s the fruit of Globalist transfer of jobs to China and the third world.
Bikinis not Burkas says
It’s called the Lima Declaration!
raja says
I don’t understand how this guy is still the boss of WHO. His ignoble running comments on China’s accomplishments on China virus notwithstanding, his is still sounding the same.
Doesn’t he have the brains to distinguish the difference between attacks on a certain country and Ukraine being flattened by a thug just because Ukraine is too insignificant to fight back? The enormity of scale of destruction itself should be enough to discern the situation.
somehistory says
He got his position because b. gates wanted him to have it. And the entire world is running on stupid right now, so he’s not likely to be ousted.
raja says
Thanks Somehistory for your reply.
Yes, we are in stupid or weird times. That reminds me of mullah Francis who named the UN organizations as impotent, a strong word considering that he is usually dumb or acts dumb. The UKR leader also called for dissolution of UN offshoots or UN itself. The leader in excruciating pain understands the highly politicized UN than the rest of us.

raja says
Somehistory,
Thank you for the link/video. The world is in a perilous state as so many evils confluence together. We have unscrupulous world leaders (in the West), societies divided like never before, race relations at a very low thanks to the Left and above all the man on the street has lost his mental balance on what to do. He does not know the difference between their right and left hand and does not know if living a life is worth it. He does not stand for anything. Really sad state of affairs. Satan is having a gala time in such a short span of time. We don’t need islam to do the damage, the Left is quiet capable of destroying the world single handedly.
somehistory says
Your are welcome, raja.
Yes< satan is having his last "short" time angry and doing as much damage and killing as he possibly can. Thankfully, his time is "short" and will soon end with his absolute defeat.
I feel for the poor people everywhere who are being starved, imprisoned, separated from their families, …all of the injustices going on. so many are without hope and don't have knowledge of what is coming and why.
Scott says
The WHO is a corrupt and fully inconsequential organization that does as much good as our own corrupt and useless CDC, “Dr.” Tedros is a black supremacist who only cares about black and brown issues. This has been obvious for some time.
Dave says
‘Racist’ or ‘Racism’…is always the cry of those trying to manipulate people. It is also the cry of the true racist. Many times, too, they use those words when they don’t fit into the sentence. Example…”If you are against islam…you are a ‘racist'” Islam is not a race, so the use of the word in that instance is improper, but certain people will use ‘racist’ just as a tool for manipulation…hoping no one really understands the true concept and definition of ‘racist’ or ‘racism’.
Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus is one of those ‘socialist/communist/Marxist/fascist/Globalist persons that demand ‘equality’ in ‘everything’. The world doesn’t work that way. The war in Ukraine is having a world-wide affect and could, in truth, evolve into a third world war at almost anytime. While the problems surrounding Ethiopia are sad, those problems come no where near what is happening in Ukraine. I also don’t recall him demanding ‘equality for Ethiopia prior to the war in the Ukraine. Most likely he is being manipulated by ‘those behind the curtain’ just as many are. As stated in “The Wizard of OZ”…”Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.” We must look at the propaganda side to the war in Ukraine, too…as the propaganda from ‘all’ sides is flowing thick and heavy and seems to be ‘designed’ to hit us in our emotional soft-spot.
All of us must take care and try not to be manipulated by those who have an agenda for socialism or a OWG. We need to look at the ‘News Media’ with a very critical eye as the lies and propaganda they spew are designed to polarize people. The days of honest news-reporting seem to be gone…the days when news reporting was mostly unbiased, letting the individual decide for themself what they believe. Now…we are ‘told’ what to believe and those who question what they are being told are becoming outcasts in our society and targeted socially. Look at news reports and what the ‘intent’ seems to be. You’ll find that if it is ‘designed’ to elicit an ’emotional’ reaction it may be designed for manipulation…just as those commercials that show the ‘suffering’ of people, children and animals are designed to do…pull at our heart strings and emotions.
We must learn to look at and hear things without the emotional response they want. ‘Emotional response’, most of the time, will lead us to paths we don’t really want to go down.
PMK says
Dave,
Here the constant charges of ‘racism’ and ‘white privilege’ have outlived their usefulness. I just ignore them and all ‘leaders’ who make these charges. Tedros has had zero credibility since the start of the pandemic.
gravenimage says
Dr. Tedros is supposed to be Christian, but he is an apologist for Islam, even though there has been so much Muslim violence in Ethiopia and Eritrea:
“Many fellow Christians were surprised when I said inshallah. And I meant it. Islam means Peace. And that has been what I believed since childhood although I am Orthodox Christian. I had neighbors since childhood who were models of that Islam value. Let’s not link the ideology of some radicals to represent Islam. Islam is Peace…”
https://www.facebook.com/DrTedros.Official/posts/552442938158536
A lot of replies take him to task on this apologia.
raja says
Gravenimage,
Thanks for the info on WHO chief. Dr Tedros must be a thoroughbred crook. He is most probably thinking that singing lullabies for islam is highly rewarding in today’s world.
gravenimage says
Thank you, Raja.
Hank says
The WHO boss should understand that the Ukraine-Russian war needs more consideration now because Putin and his Evil Empire is up to its old ways of manufacturing separatists, excuses to send troops, bomb cities to rubble killing all civilians in it, usurp big chunks or whole nations around it, and denying it all. Moreover, Putin has now created the biggest refugee crises since WW2, a forthcoming Famine in the African Continent, and masses of orphans, widows, invalids and Russian mothers who will never see their sons again.

Doomer says
Regarding Ukraine, the best source of reliable info is SCOTT RITTER,he was:
1. The chief inspector of the United Nations in Irak( before the 2003 war) regarding Weapons of Mass Destruction.
2. He told the government,in 2003, that Sadam Hussein had NO weapons of mass destruction. He was ignored,the war began. He was right, it was a lie by Bush.
A lie invented by: the Deep State,the Neocons,
and the Miltary-Industrial group ( greedy for money: more wars, more money for them ).
Check out his conversation with:
In “Scott Ritter: A Conversation About Ukraine Part 1” ( APRIL 6 )
“Scott Ritter: A Conversation About Ukraine Part 2”
uploaded by youtuber ED MAYS
It begins with WW II and STEPAN BANDERA,goes to his army’s fight (1944-1955) against the Soviets
( 300,000 Ukrainians killed,40,000 Russian soldiers). About why he is a hero in Ukraine, then about VICTORIA NULAND in 2014 ( her coup d’etat using the BANDERISTAS),etc.
C-14, Right Secotr,Azov, Aiden: they are all Banderistas. He is a Masterful Narrator(at the end of the 2 part conversation, he says:
Verify what I say,do your own research)
The description says:
“Interview of Scott Ritter hosted by Margaret Flowers and
Joe Lombardo of the United National AntiWar Coalition.
Scott Ritter was the UN weapons inspector who, during the Iraq War told the truth that we found no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
He became outspoken about this, which undercut the main reason the US used to invade and occupy Iraq. As with the Iraq War,
Scott Ritter is outspoken about the present war in Ukraine, in which we are again hearing US lies about the reasons for, and the events happening in the Ukraine War.
His vast experience and knowledge working in the military and with various international agencies helps expose the truth about what is happening in Ukraine.”
gravenimage says
Doomer has lauded Scott Ritter here many times.
Ritter has ranted that the problem with 9/11 was “right wing terror”.
He was a big fan of Saddam Hussein.
As for his supposed political acumen, he claimed in 2005 that George Bush had signed off on bombing Iran. He spent a lot of time shilling for this on Al Jazeera, and he blamed this on the “Israel lobby”. He wrote a book about it. Of course, this never happened.
There’s lots more, but why bother?
Westman says
After listening to Ritter’s view of the Ukraine War, I think he’s got that right even if some of his other views have been bizarre. He was right about the foolishness of invading Iraq for non-existant WMDs, and likely right about Ukraine as all the historical pieces, of why this war began, fit.
I wish he was wrong, but short of US direct intervention on the ground, Russia will win what it really wanted while the West is still declaring it’s losing. It’s also the first chink in the petro-dollar with India and other nations continuing to buy Russian energy. The Russian Oligarchs, without their money, cannot force Putin out so US-directed sanctions do him a favor. It’s a crazy world with even more crazy, “leaders”.
gravenimage says
Ah, right…because pro-Jihadists who claim that Ukrainians are actually murdering their own people instead of the non-violent Russians who had to invade because Ukraine was somehow “threatening” them by not being under the Russian heel. Try again…
Doomer says
I will have to check on Ritter’s views on Islam, which if he doesn’t see how it is a factor,it would explain his wrong views on other things. That is why he said at the end of the
2 hr interview with the United National Antiwar Coalition to verify. It reminded me of a famous Russian saying:
“Trust,but verify” ( it rhymes )
(Doveryai,
no proveryai (Доверяй, но проверяй) )
1. Yesterday the Zelensky regime has said the Russians that left
have killed 900 civilians near Kiev.
After all the Crying Wolf by the Zelensky regime: another FALSE FLAG.
Westman stated:
“The Russian Oligarchs, without their money, cannot force Putin out so US-directed sanctions do him a favor. ”
YES, they have always had much/most of their money OUTSIDE of Russia. It has been Expropriated ( Stolen ) by the West. Their properties also.
1. When Putin got to power the OLIGARCHS ( billionaires ) were so and so, but with Time, Putin eliminated All the Oligarchs
of 1999.
2. Then appeared NEW oligarchs but as Gonzalo Lira said: “They are less wealthy than the original ones”.
3. Then after the war, Putin made a speech telling the remaining oligarchs to leave, and many,many have. Putin has done a great service to Russia:
the elimination of the power of the oligarchs is necessary for a better Russian society. One with less,less corruption.
The speech was on MARCH 17 or a little before, it doesn’t say anything extreme against the oligarchs except for the phrase:
“But any people, the Russian people, especially, are able to distinguish
true patriots from bastards and traitors
and will spit them out. ”
Here it is:
“The collective West is attempting to splinter our society, speculating on military losses, on socioeconomic effects of sanctions, in order to provoke a people’s rebellion in Russia.
But any people, the Russian people, especially, are able to distinguish true patriots from bastards and traitors and will spit them out.
I am certain that this necessary and natural self-cleansing of society will only strengthen our country, our solidarity, togetherness, and our readiness to answer any calls to action.
I’m not judging those with villas in Miami or the French Riviera or those who cannot live without foie gras and mussels or so-called gender-based rights
as long as they are mentally with Russia. The problem does not lie in this, but I repeat,
the fact that many of these people inherently, mentally, live elsewhere and not here with us, with our people, with Russia. “

In fact. the *opposite* is the case–concern that Putin will take this money and use it to continue to wage war on Ukraine.
Incidentally, I also have mixed feeling about shutting down these accounts–but surely concerns over Putin using these monies is not implausible.

Well, he needs to understand that only white people can be racist and they are that way because they are born that way. My advice for him is to stay away from white people and let them kill each other off … because they are very dangerous and unpredictable people. If that sounds racist, well, I can say that because I am white and, therefore, a racist. (sarc)
Seriously though, he talks of the “human race.” Yes, there is only one human race but human beings have developed varying physical differences because of adaptions the human body has made over thousands of years caused by environmental difference in the world. His bodily adaptations make him better suited to live in certain areas of the Earth. Anyone who can’t adjust to a new environment should remain in the environment for which they are best suited. I think everyone would be happier that way.
somehistory says
Well, tedros, it’s White privilege, is it not? We are White, we are all **racists** and we can’t change…that is what we have been told, over and over again recently. So, guess you are stuck with things the way they are.
I care more about my family than I do my next door neighbors. I care more about my children than I do about my cousins and their kids. It’s a natural thing. And, what is more, afghanistan, syria, and yemen have gotten quite a lot of attention in recent years.
As for ethiopia, it has long been a country on the *brink* of famine, has been suffering famine, and that leads to sickness. People can only think about such things so much before there is emotional overload. He should just go home and spend some of his own money….probably gets a bundle…to help “his” people, instead of expecting others to do it.
If the U.S. government, and other governments ignore what is happening in nigeria, it’s not that difficult to see that less attention is focused on ethiopia than on a possible nuclear confrontation and conflagration of the earth.
Wellington says
Tedros, considering his many errors and pathetic suck-ups to China, has no credibility among people with proper knowledge and common sense (this would, of course, exclude the pathological liar and massive incompetent, one Anthony Fauci by name).
The fact that this highly deficient and corrupt man still has a forum on the world stage speaks volumes respecting the existing world stage.
N.B., the “world stage” is currently in not a good position, no, not at all. Easy call. For the record and all that. My God, man is so often a collective idiot. Tedros helps confirm this.
James Lincoln says
Wellington says,
“Tedros, considering his many errors and pathetic suck-ups to China, has no credibility among people with proper knowledge and common sense”
100% true.
The problem is that a very large percent of people lack “proper knowledge and common sense.”
tim gallagher says
Concern for Ukrainian people is just the concern of decent human beings for other human beings who are being slaughtered by the scumbag Putin and his minions. This WHO creature is way out of line and is showing himself to be an anti-white racist. Someone I would have zero concern about is this clown in charge of WHO. He probably only got the job, in these times of identity politics, because he has dark skin. He certainly has never displayed much in the way of brain power. Also why is this idiot, in charge of WHO, commenting on the Russian invasion of Ukraine. It seems to have nothing to do with the sort of issue he should be sticking his nose into. They certainly appoint some ignorant wankers to some of these positions. You do wonder how such people reach their exalted positions. This guy always seems so mediocre and seems to be owned by China and spends most of his time trying to get China off the hook for unleashing Covid.
Wellington says
Explained by the Peter Principle, tim, respecting Tados. Classic example of such actually.
Meanwhile, best to the Ukrainians, as you noted, and may Putin have shorter days on Earth than longer ones. Like so many Russian tyrants (and many other tyrants—Xi of China comes to mind as an example), he has lived too long.
What is best for mankind and what is best for tyrants are invariably, long term, two entirely opposing matters.
tim gallagher says
Yes, Wellington, only the Peter Principle could explain this buffoon’s advancement to a level of office which is way above his abilities. I agree with you about Putin and Xi. The only problem seems to be that in China and Russia the type of dictatorial government that curses those two countries will ensure that some other equally evil scumbags will take power there. Both have never had any decent government and I suspect that they never will. It’s a problem for all the poor buggers that live in those countries and a problem for the rest of us as well.

WHO Boss Says Concern for Ukraine is Racist
………….
Just appalling. And we’ve heard this from other creeps, as well.
White lives aren’t supposed to matter…
Wellington says
In our time, gravenimage, whites are the “bad guys.” This is as stupid and unethical as blacks a century ago being the bad guys here in America under Jim Crow or, even worse, under slavery before the Civil War and the 13th Amendment. Ditto for non-Aztec tribes in the 16th century, the Hutu v. the Tutsi in 1994, the Iroquois v. non-Iroquois, Zulu v. Xhosa, Nazis v. Jews, certainly Muslims v. non-Muslims, the “divine race,” i.e., the Japanese, v. all other humans, et al.
Virtually all peoples have done wrong against other peoples if given the opportunity, whether based upon a spurious racist assumption, a fallacious ideological assumption (here Islam comes foremost to mind over the longest period of time), a bogus ethnic assumption, a faux gender assumption or whatever. But only the West pioneered the capacity to address in major ways many wrongdoings and apologize for past wrongdoings. But which civilization is easily the most excoriated in our era? Almost exclusively excoriated? Why the West of course.
All of which betokens what a phony time we live in. There have been many past terrible times but the age we inhabit is arguably the phoniest and most absurd age mankind has ever experienced. I would vote in the affirmative here.

That’s about it these days, gravenimage, for many people. White people are supposed to be terrible people and, as you say there, their lives don’t matter. It’s open season on white people. i must say that I don’t have the time of day for any of these people that I hear putting forward this ferocious hatred for white people and the marvelous achievements of western civilisation whether in the decent liberal democratic political system, the scientific revolution or the artistic achievements, all done by white people. All people make some mistakes and do some evil things, but the hatred directed towards white people by some imbeciles these days is both disgusting and based on complete ignorance. I agree with what you have written there, Wellington.

Another bit of insanity I just ran across, Tim:
“Are white people bad for the environment?”

Honestly, I can’t relate at so much of this crap these days, gravenimage. I was saying to a left wing guy who I play golf with, who is the boyfriend of one of my sisters that I can’t understand this gender fluidity garbage and he said that old people like us have always had trouble relating to what the present generation are going on with. I acknowledge that partly he is right. But, seriously, some of the garbage these days is unhinged, as you say. The foul hatred directed at white people by some blacks makes me sick. from memory, I think I heard some black American academic saying that whiteness was a disease or such crap. I have never been a white supremacist, and over the years I have met so many Asians that I have found to be terrific people who don’t get around hating anyone, but i really am coming to loathe these blacks that I see, usually academics (absolute poisonous dopes I think) that they show on “Outsiders” on Sky News who hate white people. i just think, hey, right back at you. I hate you as much as you hate white people. So up yours. somehistory, yes I think that there will be a fightback by people who have had enough of this utter garbage.
gravenimage says
Somehistory, I think that Black lives *do* matter. I just take issue that this means that BLM thugs should be allowed to run rampant looting and violently targeting police and White people. That’s what *I’m* sick of.
somehistory says
Well, of course the lives of Black people matter. all lives matter, no skin tone is more important or sacred than another. but, as you say, you are “sick” of the thugs getting away with crimes they commit.
and so are we all. some time back, a guy …it may have been Ami Horowitz…can’t be sure…was interviewing Black people on the street and they, too, were “sick” of it.
If it goes on long enough, there will be pushback. Just like when someone is bullied and they try to just walk away. If the bullying continues long enough, the end result is pushback, perhaps the bully gets a taste of his own.
And that is evident by what was written on the money my daughter was given in change. someone is sick enough that they wrote an untruth.

Certainly, there can be some truth to this–although obviously your sister’s boyfriend, who appears to be roughly the same age, doesn’t appear to have this “problem”.
But let’s look at this objectively–about 5% of the population is homosexual. Then, let’s assume for the sake of argument that everyone who “identifies” as Transgender is–not a sure thing, but hey–this still makes up just 0.004% of the population–a tiny amount. Yet this is a *huge*, incessant topic now. Clearly this is about politics that go way beyond actual numbers.
So what is the purpose of this? I think to indicate that being “cisgendered” (actually the sex you were born with) is somehow unnatural and to be questioned. Even being “cisgendered” and attracted to your own gender (Gay) is too mainstream now.
This sets the stage for undermining *all* norms. Not just questioning them, but invalidating them.

gravenimage, those numbers you mention about what a tiny proportion of the population would be transgender type people is the thing i keep wondering about. How in hell’s’ name has this become such a big issue. Of course it has to be that large numbers of left wingers, cultural Marxists, including left wing feminists must be pushing the trans agenda. The way that it is destroying women’s sport is terrible. This is a big issue right now in Australia because Katherine Deves, who is a candidate for the Liberal Party in our upcoming election,and is co-founder of a group called “Save Women’s sport” is being attacked for some kind of tweets which the trans lobby disagree with. But I think that over 90% of the population out here would say that it is totally unfair to have girls and women trying to compete against these trans males. On the blacks saying foul stuff about whites, as in whiteness is a disease and such like crap, you are definitely right. The people involved in this are out to totally tear apart our way of life. On my sister’s boyfriend, they have a daughter who is in her early twenties and doing well academically and I can imagine that, being brought up as left winger, she is probably part of the university scene where this gender bullshit is all the rage. So he was probably thinking about her when he said that to me. I only very occasionally meet her, but I can just imagine the crap she would believe. She is going to study history (no doubt left wing type history) at an American University later this year. To me, and many other people I’m sure, this world has gone crazy in many ways. We also have politicians and bureaucrats who can’t say what a woman is. Absolutely unbelievable nonsense.

Tim, as you note, most of the people pushing the “Trans” thing are not Trans (or do not “identify” as Trans).
One of the worst things is the “cancelling” of Harry Potter author JK Rowling, who is *anything” but anti-Gay or bigoted. I think the savage putdown of her was to show opponents that *no one* who has the slightest qualms about this “narrative” can escape.

I agree with what you say about J K Rowling. From what i recall, I think she simply said, in a common sense way, what a woman is. I wonder if she will be published again. I suppose she will have to use a nom de plume. I think that is the term from the tiny bit of French I can remember. Out here in australia, we had politician, a conservative named Alex Antic (I think that is right) asking various high up bureaucrats and even a doctor who is way up at the top of the Health Department to give a definition of a woman, and they all squirmed and said they couldn’t say as it is contentious territory these days or some such term. It was absolutely nuts and pathetic. Rowan Dean, on the “Outsiders” program said what cowards they all are, afraid of facing some backlash.

Crazy, Tim.

The World Health Organization boss is from Ethiopia. That tells you quite a bit about the usefulness of the UN.
Us white guys have had enough of the undeserved degradation. The you do or don’t do this, you should or shouldn’t do that. We get it, we are on our own. So please, non whites, just leave us alone and go away.
He didn’t get educated in Ethiopia, he was educated in England. What a surprise.

Good point–Dr. Tedros studied in London.

Along with the UNHCR, they are simply a bunch of freeloaders of no use to this earth. Doubtless, all are run by rich Muslims who know nothing about the real people.

W.H.O. another organization formed to do good in the world, now just a high paying useless organization being supported with American tax payer dollars.
How much money has Ethiopia paid to support the UN?
Funny how these backward countries always blame the whites for their standard of living. They quickly forget that most of the aid and aid organizations where created by white people to try and help the people around the world. Their vary leaders all too often got fat off the foreign aid at the cost of their own citizens.
Why should we be concerned about the people of Ethiopia or any other country, seems like their only concern about Americans is how to get more of our tax dollars. Maybe it’s time to stop all this foreign aid, it doesn’t seem to be accomplishing anything except for lining pockets of crooked politicians and aid agencies.
I vote to spend our TAX DOLLARS on problems in America and closing our borders to non-legal immigration.
