Famine in the Horn of Africa
http://thedianerehmshow.org/shows/2000-05-03/famine-horn-africa
Several hundred people, mostly children, have already died of starvation and famine-related disease this year in Ethiopia, Eritrea, and part of Kenya. A panel talks about why famine has struck this region again and why western industrial countries are again facing the criticism that they responded to a predictable crisis too slowly.
