RE: There are more refugees today than ever before
It is an unfortunate set of circumstances that I see here everyday with these defenseless souls trying to find a place where they are not subjected to any type of aggression or inhumane treatment. Unfortunately the list of charities you mention do very little on the ground to aid them...as the host countries simply do not want the headache of processing them. The sure is for the super powers to stop using these peoples homes as a playing field for military games and control of commodities. The mentality of "protecting our country" does not mean dropping billions of dollars of munitions on defenseless human beings. But then again it does create a multi billion dollar industry of supply and demand doesn't it. It is so easy to put a label on who is responsible, but of course that is a sensitive subject that those powers will have to live with for eternity.
