Instead of Murdering Iraqis to get our way, P.M. Gordon Brown' Approach....
Edited on Wed Sep-05-07 05:14 PM by Broadslidin
might eventually be embraced by the U.S. empire.

British Prime Minister Gordon Brown is spearheading a campaign
to build national health systems in some of the world's
poorest countries that will help save millions of lives.

The programme is backed by Norway, Germany, France, Italy,
the Netherlands, and international organizations including:
the World Bank, The World Health Organization, UNICEF,
The European Commission, and the African Development Bank.

The U.S. has refused to join the effort.

4. Like this initiative doesn't meet the litmus test for 'pukes values?
Hundred of billions of borrowed money annually for arms, but let the poor people eat cake and do without health care, To wit: more 'puke values.
