Refugees and Humanitarian Aid

[tofusushi]

Two nights ago I saw the Anglina Jolie/Clive Owen movie Beyond Borders about refugees in war-torn countries. Since then I've discovered www.unhcr.ch, the United Nations website dedicated to helping refugees. In real life, Angelina Jolie is now a Goodwill Ambassador for the UN

The problem with finding better answers is a hard one. See in philosophy I learned all forms of government are really great on paper. Socialism, communism and democracy all look great, because they are perfect without flaw, but when you add humans to the equasion, it never works because we are imperfect. Greed, power etc etc. So if we were perfect perhaps all forms of government would work.
It does really bother me alot and I feel so helpless with whats going on in the world today. I feel for everyone in Iraq right now including the iraqi ppl. I mean the whole country is in chaos. I keep searching for some solution that would make sense to me and haven;t come up with a solid one. Aloha and have a great day.

Good point about how all government looks good on paper. I hadn't thought of that.
