Isn't it something that the rich developed nations who got rich at the expense of the exploited Third World continue to contribute to the holocaust. France got very rich by exploiting Haiti and Vietnam, England got very rich by exploiting India etc. Now they turn their backs on them

Typical capitalists - chew them up and spit them out. No capitalist nation will help these poor kids unless they get something in return - usually a large slice of the resource pie or cheap labour.

The world community sets all these targets for the developed world to help the developing world, but really what will they do? There's no way that conservative western governments give a shit about LEDC's and the targets are set low with this in mind. This lets the west set innadequate targets for improvement, so even if they do meet them, the aid they give will be nowhere near enough.

To quote a System of a Down song:
"4,000 children leave us per hour from starvation,
While billions are spent on bombs, creating death-showers."

Really we need to stop just complaing, and saying how bad this is - any one can do that. We need to show the people that it is class oppression that is causing this - the borgeoise in the third world never starve do they? Untill people realise that it is class power that causes poverty, they will carry on believing the lies of their capitalist politicians that they will do something about it.
