Kenya: Humanitarian Emergency in Dadaab

Thousands of Somali refugees arrive weekly in northeastern Kenya after often long journeys through the desert to the Dadaab refugee camps. When they arrive, they find that the camps are full. Most of these new arrivals must build crude shelters on the outskirts of the camps in the desert and wait up to two months to receive food rations. Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) provides medical care to those inside and outside the official camps.

@XoXoSelenaGomez1oXo Actually, you poor uneducated sob, African warlords sold their own race to Europeans for slavery.

@4113randy It is likely that you have unconsciously had everything that you have had made by the backs of others, don't consider your own position in society, and choose not to consider the lives of those worse of than you. History lesson?

HISTORY LESSON-THESE PEOPLE HAVE NOT EVOLVED TO THE LEVEL WHERE THEY CAN SUSTAIN THEMSELVES.THEY ARE PARASITES WHO HAVE TO LIVE OFF OTHERS OR THEY WILL DIE.WHEN THE U.S. ARMY WAS THERE THEY KILLED AMERICANS....LET THEM STARVE IN THE WASTELAND THEY MADE.....

Hard to believe some people have to live like this, especially while Americans can get disability for being too fat and not have to work. If only some people could trade lives.

I wish I had enough money to help...the children most especially. This really made me sad. I am from a poor country and I usually daydream of living in a first world...to get to see celebrities, to have a picture with Mickey Mouse...now I feel so shallow after watching this. I should be grateful, I should be happy that I am, in so many ways, better off than these children.

If I remember correctly the last time the US tried to feed these people it ended rather badly. I happen to remember these people dragging our dead soldiers through the streets. I also remember them wearing Osama bin Laden t-shirts and cheering on tv after 911. Maybe piracy doesn't pay that well after all. As an American, I am sick of supporting countries that harbor terrorists. This is their problem, I hope there is enough humble pie to go around
