Libya v. Somalia.

Wants v. Needs.

Meaning, if we weren't already militarily overextended, if NATO wasn't occupied with coordinating "sorties" over Libyan skies, could we spare up a soldier or two to put some muscle into seeing the Somalis either get fed or get out?

Really, we have to accept, in this technological day and age, that large-scale famine is permissible? And yet, morally, we had to act because we were afraid the Libyan madman might kill a few thousand of his people?

I don't get it. Really.
Feed the World. This is 2011.
Let them eat (birthday) cake?

Too bad we seemingly choose to sit the sidelines on this one...
