Africa is not getting enough food... because leaders are denying it?
We have tons of campaigns going around with people sending food to Africa, but the people there are still hungry. I heard on the news that, when we send food to Africa, it gets intercepted by the local governments and then they block it from reaching the people, as a means of using hunger as a weapon. Is this true?

yes. used as a weapon, and the food can also be sold for hard currency, to buy weapons or luxuries. the level of corruption is so high that we might as well not send food at all.

Yep. It seems Americans care if African children starve, It seems as if African leaders do not.
