I'm an Irish Christian and set up this YouTube to focus on Asian Politics. I generally oppose America and Israel in political terms but I have no hate for the people of either nation.

26,500 children die every day
****************************** ***************************
That is equivalent to:

* 1 child dying every 3 seconds
* 18 children dying every minute
* A 2004 Asian Tsunami occurring every week
* An Iraq-scale death toll every 15--36 days
* Almost 10 million children dying every year
* Some 60 million children dying between 2000 and 2006

The silent killers are poverty, hunger, easily preventable diseases and illnesses, and other related causes. In spite of the scale of this daily/ongoing catastrophe, it rarely manages to achieve, much less sustain, prime-time, headline coverage.

My background is of Michael Collins

In his brief lifetime of 31 years, Michael Collins fought the British Empire to a stalemate, negotiated the first Treaty of Independence for Ireland and overseen its transition to democracy.
