Trump Aid Cuts Kill More Christians Than Jihadists Do

The comment was immaterial to the thread's topic. Got it?

You are immaterial to this group

Catch on?

Still not a single dead person.

One might conclude berg80 is a lying sack of vermin shit.

My Times colleague Helene Cooper reported that in response to Trump’s threat, the United States military has drawn up options for intervening in Nigeria in three variations: light, medium and heavy. None seems likely to accomplish much except waste money — just as Trump’s forgotten campaign against Yemen in the spring squandered $1 billion in the first month alone and achieved nothing obvious.

Trump might also reflect that while jihadists have been unable to kill tens of thousands of Nigerian Christians, his own administration appears to be doing just that. The Center for Global Development in Washington calculated earlier this year that before Trump took office, American humanitarian aid was saving about 270,000 lives a year in Nigeria.

It’s too soon to predict confidently just how many Nigerian Christian children will die because Trump cut off their access to vaccines, AIDS medications, food assistance and other essentials. But the number killed by jihadists is very likely to pale beside the number dying from Trump aid cuts. So if Trump cares about Christians or anyone else in Nigeria, all he needs to do is restore aid and let babies live.

This is one of those times when the understandable prohibition against posting too much of an article due to copyright infringement concerns is very frustrating. The full article gives a lot of context to the conclusion that has gone missing. But I think you get the point.

We don't need aid to increase the number of queers in the world.

Any dead yet, berg80

same point you always make.

Trump bad.

Most of the human race agrees. They were nearly rolling in the aisles with laughter when he spoke at the UN.

Gads.

When leftists don't get their way, suddenly people are going to die.

Please, knock it off with the scare tactics.

Your disturbing rationalization of the aid cuts leading to preventable deaths among fellow human beings is noted.

We owe 38 trillion dollars, increasing our inflation. It's not our job to feed the world.

Where are they stacking these millions of dead bodies? Got a single name yet?

Clearly, I lacked imagination. Within hours of being sworn in, President Trump signed an executive order for a “pause” to all foreign assistance. Secretary Rubio sent a cable suspending every program outright. No program staff could be paid. No services could be delivered. Medicines and food already on the shelves could not be used. No warning had been given to the governments that relied on them. It was immediately obvious that hundreds of thousands of people would die in the first year alone. But the Administration did not reconsider; it escalated. Elon Musk exulted in swinging his chainsaw. Within weeks and in defiance of legal mandates, he and Rubio purged U.S.A.I.D.’s staff, terminated more than four-fifths of its contracts, impounded its funds, and dismantled the agency. Neither Congress nor the Supreme Court did anything to stop it.

We are now witnessing what the historian Richard Rhodes termed “public man-made death,” which, he observed, has been perhaps the most overlooked cause of mortality in the last century. Brooke Nichols, the Boston University epidemiologist and mathematical modeller, has maintained a respected tracker of current impact. The model is conservative, assuming, for example, that the State Department will fully sustain the programs that remain. As of November 5th, it estimated that U.S.A.I.D.’s dismantling has already caused the deaths of six hundred thousand people, two-thirds of them children.

A bit long-winded, but we already knew about your acute TDS. You really don't have to keep proving it.
