(= Pucca asked:


What do you think the world would be like right now if America had aided the Chinese Nationalists in their fight against Communism? Would there be a North and South Korea? Would Communism have survived anywhere in the world?

(Heheh, yes it’s my homework; help please! >_< ) I don't plagarize, don't worry. Anyway, just remember every answer will be appreciated; short or long, insult or not. :P Besides... you would've spent time typin it, even if it was short and insulting. Heh :D Well yeah, I've read that from somewhere, but I think my teacher meant literally went into China and tried to fight off the Chinese Communists =\

James Jones had all those people commit suicide by Kool-aid in South America which hardly makes him either great or a leader.

Is there any organization/private donor who gives financial aid to college bound illegal immigrants?

aid to south america
Briana B asked:


I was wondering if there is anyone, or if anyone knows of anyone or any organization who is willing to give financial aid to undocumented students. My friend moved to america from south africa when she was a small child. She has spent her entire life in America, and has excelled in school. She even obtained an International Baccalaureate Diploma which is highly valued and shows a sign of her brilliance and motivation. She has even taken many AP tests, and got a 4 on the US History Test. She was admitted to UCLA but is not elgible to obtain a green card. She deserves to go to the college that she got into, and she badly needs assistance.

Japanese Say Ships Refused to Aid Drowning Vietnamese Boat People. Double standard in immigration policy?

aid to south america
D.B. Cooper asked:


Here’s a good old story that was swept under the rug because only white people are supposed to be racist. As long as stories are quickly buried, people will forget the truth.

It’s a good thing I’ve got a good memory. http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=950DE0DF1E3AF937A15750C0A96F948260

Not only did the NEARBY ships ignore cries for help, Singapore refused to let survivors into the country.
While this was happening, the whole world shrugged. I believe people would’ve cared only if one of the apathetic ships were from a white country.

Were were the conspiracy theorists? It sure was convenient that the boat (ahem) “accidently” (cough cough) sunk.

Do you think Mexico would’ve taken them?
Believe it or not, some countries are so poor, that boat people from the carribean or South America try to seek asylum in Mexico. Guess how Mexico treats them?
Oops, I spelled caribbean wrong. My bad.

helping children in need asked:


The girl has won prizes and starred in shows in school. She is from north Africa. She has now been successful in getting into a great film school in south america. Its a two year course and starts in early february. We need to raise 15000 dollars to cover the cost of this and we have only a month to do it in. I am at my wits end on how we can raise such a sum in such a short time. Please let me have your ideas. Rosa’s education and future depends on us coming up with something that works in time. Many thanks. I appreciate your input into this problem.

Why does Bush get the Christian vote in the US?

aid to south america
bertiebumhole asked:


The only reason I can figure out (I’m English by the way) is that the Christian pro-Bush voters put issues such as abortion and gay marriage ahead of starting the Third World War as a priority.
What is Christian about smashing a country to bits with bombs and kiiling 250 000 people? Then creating a situation where there will be civil war and unrest for generations to come.

Why do the Chrisitan voters not lobby their great President to do something positive in the world such as helping the AIDS crisis in Africa, ending exploitation in South America by US corporations or helping to control climate change?

Get your priorities right - gay marriages or global bloodshed - I’m confident which one Jesus would have been more disturbed by.

Is this one vital,vital reason why illegals must undergo heath screenings before being allowed in America HIV is a serious medical problem and do we ned ilegals sneaking with such harsh medical conditions and the Lation’s do not & take precatuions this poses a medical danger to illeglsl and legal alike did you know ab ilegal with HIV can run up tab into the milions of dollars .How can America afford to provide treatment at a time when our country is going broke do we realy need to import HIV ?Washington, DC (CapitalWirePR) December 2, 2008 –On World AIDS Day December 1, 2008 the Latino Commission on AIDS released “Shaping the New Response: HIV/AIDS and Latinos in the Deep South” Report, documenting the extraordinarily high rates of HIV and AIDS diagnoses among Latinos, the apparent contributing factors to this health crisis and recommendations for future action in the Deep South (Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina)*. Shaping the New Response reached its conclusions after two years of research including more than 300 interviews, 8 roundtables covering all 7 states, analysis of epidemiological data, and a review of relevant studies.

There are 2,052,227 Latinos in these seven states (as of 2007) which is an increase of 431% since the 1990 census. Latinos range from a high of 7.5% of the population in Georgia to 1.8% for Mississippi. But in rates of HIV and AIDS diagnosis Latinos present a startling portrait. While Latinos have far lower rates of HIV and AIDS diagnoses than that among Blacks in the region, Latinos have significantly higher rates than that among Whites in the Deep South. In 2006 Latinos were 2 to 3 times more likely to be living with HIV/AIDS and 3 to 10 times more likely to be diagnosed with AIDS than Whites in the Deep South.

“Many public health professionals in the region are asking Latinos are presenting with such high levels of HIV/AIDS. The answers from the Commission’s research are relatively simple – a lack of culturally and linguistically competent prevention and health care resources, distrust and lack of access to prevention and care providers given the anti-immigrant social and legal restrictions imposed by most States in the region, a well organized commercial sex industry, and a complete lack of programs for Spanish speaking men who have sex with men,” said Tim Frasca, primary author of Shaping the New Response.

“There are many professionals in health care institutions, community based organizations and State/County health departments that understand the difference between a public health crisis and the politics of the immigration debate. These local heroes are attempting to reverse these health outcomes while responding to an overwhelming health crisis among regional Black populations and there are elected officials who pretend that the problem does not exist. Most of the public health professionals we spoke to understood that the Latino HIV/AIDS epidemic can have extensive repercussions for each State and they have great ideas on how to stop it”, said Guillermo Chacon, Vice-President of the Latino Commission on AIDS.

“If we are to attack this health crisis like any other health emergency, public health needs the freedom and resources to do its job. We need a local infrastructure that will advocate and provide for increased services for Latinos at risk for and with this disease. Much basic research needs to be done on creative models for prevention and care for this very mobile population. No one should delude themselves into thinking that the variables that are producing this HIV/AIDS emergency are not also affecting other areas of critical health care for Latinos,” said Miriam Vega, PhD, Director of Research and Evaluation for the Commission.

The report contains a synthesis of recommendations from roundtables held in each state on Latinos and HIV/AIDS and additional recommendations from the Latino Commission on AIDS. The full copy of the Report is available at http://www.latinoaids.org . Printed copies of Shaping the New Response: HIV/AIDS and Latinos in the Deep South with illustrations can also be ordered at this website.

*There are many definitions of the Deep South and the Southeastern United States used by different groups. These states were selected for study as the “Deep South” by the Ford Foundation which funded this study.

Should the Catholic Church be held accountable for the death of AIDS victims in Africa?

aid to south america
skeptic asked:


They go into uneducated villages in Africa and South America ridden with AIDS and HIV, and still preach that condom use is a sin. Should they be held at least partly responsible for those deaths?
Holy Holly, in case you haven’t herd, you are much less likely to not contract STD’s with condoms.
OK, quite frankly, the answers I’m getting from a lot of the believers scare me.

I’m not sure I’ve seen a group of less compassionate and more judgemental people in my life.
Donkey, I think you are ignoring the fact that people will SELECTIVLY chose which commands to listen to. Of course if the Church tells them not to use condoms, and they are already inclined to behave that way, that is just more reason for them to do so.
delsydebothom and donkey, my point is that they are giving information that they KNOW will cause death yet they continue to do it. I know it is not what they want, but it is reality.
Also delsydebothom (geeze your name is hard), thanks for the article. But it mostly points out how religions are helping only when they keep their mouths shut about condom use being a sin.
I have to say, I’m really shocked at the lack of compassion or understanding displayed by the responders. At best, you guys are saying “Tough luck, if they want to act irresponsibly, they will be penalized.” In reality, however, it will be the wives and children who did nothing that will be penalized.

What is a velvet revloution and when does George Soros plan on taking over America?

aid to south america
UMD Terps asked:


The first two phases are based upon the successful strategy which the left used to force regime change in America during the late ‘60s and early ‘70s.

Phase One is to impeach President Bush for allegedly deceiving the nation into war. We call this phase Watergate II.

Phase Two is to force a U.S. withdrawal from Iraq and to cut off aid to the Iraqi Republic, just as Democrats cut off aid to South Vietnam after Nixon resigned. We call this phase Vietnam II.

Phase Three is velvet revolution.
