This is a beautiful piece of propaganda. Great soundtrack.

From TIME magazine, Thursday, Feb. 28, 2008

"In 2003,only 50,000 Africans were on HIV antiretroviral drugs—and they had to pay for their own medicine. Today, 1.3 million are receiving medicines free of charge. The U.S. also contributes one-third of the money for the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria—which treats another 1.5 million. It contributes 50% of all food aid.."

Written by Bob Geldof

I agree completely with you eldor07. It's just the sad truth

[Sledge101]

Anyone who asks the question 'Why isn't anything being done?' should consider that the way things are now is EXACTLY how they (the 'leaders') want it, and has been moving that way for longer than would seem believable. There is an agenda. And genocide is, tragically, a large part of it.

There is a quote: "Better a broken promise than none at all." They have more important problems now, like nuclear weapons, war for "democracy", global dominance, etc. Africa - was/is/will be always neglected. It's destiny. I feel really sorry for African nations.
