* Pakistan:
An Urgent Call for Aid.
The magnitude of Pakistan’s current tragedy is almost more than the mind can take in. A fifth of the country flooded by torrential monsoon rains. Fifteen million to 20 million people driven from their homes or otherwise affected. Six million in need of emergency assistance, such as food and clean water. Millions of acres of the country’s best cropland underwater. Livestock drowned. Medical clinics destroyed. Cholera threatening the survivors.
* U.N. Sounds Alarm on
Aid for Pakistan.
* Aid for Pakistan Lags,
U.N. Warns.
Well it is certainly not by turning our backs
on those in desperate need.
I have seen very little about this tragedy
in the news on television, radio, or in the print news.
Here is the Red Cross link.
