Tons of Food Rotting in Haitian Ports
No wonder food has been so expensive lately. Please consider making a donation to Three Angels Children's Relief to help us as we wait out this problem.
Ships are seen at the port in Port-au-Prince, Thursday, Feb. 6, 2008. While millions of Haitians go hungry, containers full of food are stacking up in the nation's ports because of government red tape leaving tons of beans, rice and other staples to rot under a sweltering sun or be devoured by vermin.The backup of containers containing food and other supplies at this impoverished country's ports is so severe that lawmakers are complaining and it is being felt 600 miles away in Miami, where overseas cargo traffic to Haiti has ground almost to a standstill.(AP Photo/Ariana Cubillos) (AP)

Good grief!!! What else?
It is hard to keep a smile on your face some days huh?
All I can figure is God has heard all our prayers where Haiti is concerned and he is getting ready to move. And that makes satan nerveous so he is trying to do all he can to cause harm in Haiti.
I'm gonna keep praying for change how about you? Wars can be won on bended knees!
Thanks for sharing.
wow. incredible. it's so perfectly haitian! "mmm, see this good food? yeah, you can't have it."
It makes you want to scream!!! But I'm sure praying like Kristina has suggested is much more effective!
This is just so sad!
this makes me so angry. you see the oppression that the psalms talk about so clearly in Haiti. i've never understood it so well as i do when i look at the children there, and what they need, and the people that are keeping it from them.
on another note...i really miss you!
