“We give help to everyone in the world! When do they help us!? We help bail out this and that country, send aid here and there, notably saved and re-built Europe in WWII. What do we get for our efforts? Hatred.”
Thus complained someone once about how hated America — saintly, in this person’s view — is in the world. Poor us. What do we do when we do get that help?
Hundreds of tons of British food aid shipped to America for starving Hurricane Katrina survivors is to be burned
US red tape is stopping it from reaching hungry evacuees. (commondreams.org)
That’s right — we burn it.
