Multiple 9/11s every day of the year

Multiple 9/11s every day of the year: Why is there no war on this terror?

“Another child will die in the time it takes to read this sentence. And the death of that child, a child who had a name and a personality, a family and a future, is a rebuke to all humanity. It is no longer necessary. It is therefore no longer acceptable.”
State of the World’s Children — UNICEF

According to the video documentary, “A World Without Water,” (you can watch it at the bottom of this post) “every day 3900 children die as a result of insufficient or unclean water supplies.” Most of these children, under 5 years old, are dehydrated to death — slowly, excruciatingly.

According to UNICEF, “9.7 million children under five die (every year) four million in the first month of life. Most of these deaths are from preventable and treatable diseases. These children don’t die from birth defects or incurable diseases—they die from infections, diarrhea, pneumonia, malaria, measles, and other causes that are almost unheard of in our own country. Undernutrition is a key factor in up to half of all child deaths.” That’s about 27,000 children dying a day from easily preventable or treatable causes. Their parents drown in their own tears.

Their only crime was to have the misfortune of being born on the “wrong” side of the tracks — both globally and within their own countries. So successful has been the dehumanization of these, the wretched of the earth, that year after year the holocaust of 10 million children remains invisible and silent to those with full bellies and working faucets.

We don’t allow our young children free access to money and bank accounts because we haven’t yet “taught them how to manage money wisely.” We fear they would fritter it away on toys and candy and perhaps do something reckless, like give some of it to friends. Literally millions of pages have been written waxing eloquent on how best to teach children responsible money-management skills.

Yet the world over, wise adults collectively spend $1.1 trillion every year on weaponry — weapons that, by denying people food and water, kill millions every year without ever firing a shot. I take that back. As the reprehensible NRA is fond of saying, “It’s not guns that kill people” without ever firing a shot. It’s people who kill millions of people every year without ever saying a word.

Leading this global blood lust is the United States, where “our military spending exceeds the rest of the world’s spending combined, and we spend almost 10 times what the second-place country, China, spends.” (Glenn Greenwald, Salon.com). As Glenwald observes, there is a “bipartisan consensus on U.S. military spending .”

Yet a dollar a day can feed, clothe, house and educate a child. A dollar a day can prevent the death of a child who has the same right to life that you and I do.

Instead we have an annual holocaust that murders 10 million of the most innocent, vulnerable and voiceless human beings on this bloody planet. In this we are all silently complicit and all the water in the world can not wash that blood off our hands.

Can someone please explain to me why there is no war on this terror?

More Water Facts and Figures:

* 1.1 billion people in the world do not have access to safe water, roughly one-sixth of the world’s population.
* 2.4 billion people in the world do not have access to adequate sanitation, about two-fifths of the world’s population.
* 2.2 million people in developing countries, most of them children, die every year from diseases associated with lack of access to safe drinking water, inadequate sanitation and poor hygiene.
* Some 6,000 children die every day from diseases associated with lack of access to safe drinking water, inadequate sanitation and poor hygiene – equivalent to 20 jumbo jets crashing every day.
* At any one time it is estimated that half of the world’s hospital beds are occupied by patients suffering from water-borne diseases.
* 200 million people in the world are infected with schistosomiasis, of whom 20 million suffer severe consequences. The disease is still found in 74 countries of the world. Scientific studies show that a 77% reduction of incidence from the disease was achieved through well designed water and sanitation interventions.
* The average distance that women in Africa and Asia walk to collect water is 6 km.
* The weight of water that women in Africa and Asia carry on their heads is the equivalent of your airport luggage allowance (20kg).
* The average person in the developing world uses 10 litres of water a day.
* The average person in the United Kingdom uses 135 litres of water every day.
* One flush of your toilet uses as much water as the average person in the developing world uses for a whole day’s washing, cleaning, cooking and drinking.
* Comparative costs: In Europe $11 billion is spent each year on ice cream; in USA and Europe, $17 billion is spent on pet food; in Europe $105 billion is spent annually on alcoholic drinks, ten times the amount required to ensure water, sanitation and hygiene for all.
* In the past 10 years diarrhoea has killed more children than all the people lost to armed conflict since World War II.
* In China, India and Indonesia twice as many people are dying from diarrhoeal diseases as from HIV/AIDS.
* In 1998, 308,000 people died from war in Africa, but more than two million (six times as many) died of diarrhoeal disease. …

This was a very moving article,how can she connect the N.R.A. in anyway is amazing, I’m pro N.R.A. I believe just as you do on everything else, what is so strange about taking my children and relatives to the shooting range and skeet range for a little family shooting competition? We go bolwing together, we ski and ride dirt bikes also. I also sleep better knowing if some thug comes to kill and seconds count, I won’t have to wait for the Police who are minutes away at best, Don’t forget a armed Citizens stop more crime than the Police, just the chance you have a gun keeps you safe at night. Go to a indoor shooting range and have someone teach you to fire a revolver at some targets you will love it!……….

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
MANY BLACKS ARE UNDERGOING INHUMANE LIVING CONDITIONS IN BOTH GREENSBORO AND HIGH POINT, NORTH CAROLINA. WE ARE BEING FORCED TO LIVE WITH RATS, MANY ROACHES, WITHOUT LIGHTS, WATER ETC. WHEN WE SEEK TO COMPLAIN, WE ARE BEING MET WITH POLICE HARRASSMENT. WHAT WE MEAN IS, IF WE COMPLAIN ABOUT SOMETHING AND SAY THAT IT IS RACIALLY MOTIVATED, THEN POLICE FOLLOW OUR VEHICLES AND STOP US FOR NOTHING. ONE SUCH ILLEGAL SEASURE LED TO THE DEATH OF A SUSPECT AND SLIGHT SCRATCHES ON OTHERS. SEE BELOW:

Driver of Stolen Car Fatally Shot Trying to Run Over Deputy
Suspect Arrested in Winston-Salem Shooting, Robbery

FORSYTH COUNTY, N.C. (WGHP) – New information has been released in connection with a deadly shooting involving a Forsyth County sheriff’s deputy Feb. 29 on Lewisville-Clemmons Road.

The State Bureau of Investigation said deputies initially stopped the car driven by Jovon Evans because of expired license tags.

During the stop, Evans reportedly hit one of the deputies while trying to get away. One of the deputies opened fire, shooting and killing Evans.
Investigators said Evans was driving a stolen car.

The five deputies involved in the shooting are on administrative leave during the SBI investigation.

NOW, WE KNOW THAT THE POLICE MAKE STOPS FOR THINGS SUCH AS THIS, BUT THE SHOTING WAS NOT NECESSARY. SPEAK TO WITNESSES WHO WILL TELL THE TRUTH. YOU DON’T SHOOT A PERSON THAT MANY TIMES AND SAY THAT IT WAS NECESSARY IF THEY ARE UNARMED. ALSO, THERE IS DISPUTE AS TO WHETHER OR NOT THE PARTY HIT A POLICE OFFICER WITH THE CAR. NORTH CAROLINA POLICE ARE KNOWN FOR TARGETING BLACKS. EVERY BLACK IS EITHER ON PROBATION OR PAROLE, OR JUST DON’T LOOK RIGHT TO THEM.

BACK TO THE POINT. WHEN YOU FILE COMPLAINTS AGAINST CAUCASIAN LANDLORDS, YOU GET HARRASSED BY POLICE. AND WHEN YOU GO HIGHER WITH THE COMPLAINTS, THE POLICE DESTROY FILES AND EVIDENCE, SUCH AS IN THE BELOW CASE:

FOX8 News

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (WGHP) – Broken doors, boarded-up windows, leaky ceilings and roach-filled closets are among the reasons why the Housing Authority of Winston-Salem has ending its subsidized housing contract with the Maryland Avenue Apartments.

The decision is allowing people to move out of the apartments. City officials told FOX8 News they started asking the landlord, Baldwin Properties, to make repairs in December. A Baldwin spokesperson said they’ve made $220,000 in repairs. Despite that, the housing authority claims many of the units still do not meet their requirements.

“I have gotten calls and comments in public meetings about condition out there and we felt we had to take some action,” said housing authority spokesman Larry Woods.

The decision allows all residents living as part of Section 8 Federal Housing Plan are being allowed to move.

“I am just glad they are seeing what we are seeing,” said resident Patricia Wright, who has lived in the complex for eight years. Having the ability to transfer her Section 8 rent vouchers to another apartment complex is, as she said, an answer to a prayer.

“I just hope and pray I can find a house to get up out of here.”
Residents who want can start moving immediately. Those not wanting to move have to ensure their apartment meets code in order to get a voucher to stay.

MANY HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT “FOWLER AND FOWLER REALTORS” IN HIGH POINT, NORTH CAROLINA AND MULTIPLE REALTORS AND LANDLORDS IN GREENSBORO, NORTH CAROLINA. ATTORNEY JAMES WEEKS, AN ATTORNEY WHO HANDLES LANDLORD TENANT CLAIMS, DO NOT ASSIST BLACKS VIRTUALLY, AT ALL. MOST BLACKS ARE TOLD BY HIM, AND WE QUOTE, “JUST MOVE”. “IF WE TAKE THE CASE TO COURT, IT WILL GO ON FOR A WHILE AND IF YOU MOVED, IT WOULD SAVE PROBLEMS AND PAPERWORK. CHANCES ARE, THE LANDLORD WILL MAKE YOU MOVE ANYWAY IF YOU MAKE A CASE AGAINST HIM OR HER”.

THESE ARE THE RESPONSES BLACKS GET. SEVERAL POLICE OFFICERS IN HIGH POINT, GREENSBORO, WINSTON SALEM, KERNERSVILLE, AND BOONE, NORTH CAROLINA SAY THAT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS WORKING WITH STATE OFFICIALS ANYWAY AND THAT THE PROBLEMS ARE KNOWN BEFORE PARTIES COMPLAIN TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. EVEN THOUGH, FOWLER AND FOWLER, ALONG WITH MULTIPLE OTHER REALTORS AND LANDLORDS HAVE BEEN SHOW THE INFORMTION BELOW, THEY STILL USE THEIR INFLUENCE WITH CITY OFFICIALS AND OTHERS TO KEEP DOING WHAT THEY HAVE BEEN DOING. NORTH CAROLINA TREATS BLACKS VERY EVIL. AND IF A BLACK COMPLAIN, RACISTS CAUCASIANS WILL TREAT THE NEXT BLACK GOOD AND THEN USE THAT BLACK TO DEFEND HIM OR HERSELF AGAINST THE ACCUSATIONS. THE RACISM IS VERY STRONG HERE AND BEFORE ITS OVER, WE FEEL THAT THEY WILL TRY TO LOCK UP EVERY BLACK THEY CAN TO FILL NEW PRISON BEDS.IT IS SO SAD. WHERE IS JUSTICE? IS THERE SUCH A THING ANYMORE?

Landlord-Tenant
Housing Rights Protection
Various federal, state and local laws and ordinances protect housing rights. The Federal Fair Housing Act of 1968 makes it illegal for a landlord to discriminate because of a person’s race, sex, national origin or religion. Some local laws forbid discrimination against unmarried persons, children, homosexuals, disabled persons or others.
Washington has a Residential Landlord-Tenant Act which defines the minimum duties of landlords and tenants of residential dwellings. These laws also impose certain restrictions and provide remedies if one party fails to carry out a duty. The remedies include eviction, reduced rent, self-help repairs, the right to sue for money damages, and an award of attorneys’ fees to the successful party. Generally, the provisions of the act may not be waived by the landlord or tenant.
Housing codes and other local ordinances have also been enacted in many communities to set minimum standards for living conditions and to further regulate landlords’ and tenants’ rights and duties. For example, the City of Seattle requires disclosure of specific information and prohibits certain lease provisions. For information on local ordinances, contact the city council, city attorney or other official where you live.
Landlords and tenants of mobile homes are subject to the rules of the Mobile Home Landlord-Tenant Act; a summary of this act is available from the state Attorney Generals’ office.
Rental Agreement
When a landlord and tenant agree to the terms for the rental of property, whether orally or in writing, a tenancy is created. The agreement between the landlord and tenant governing the tenancy is called a lease or a rental agreement. It establishes a tenant’s right to use property for a specified length of time in exchange for payment of rent. The property owner is called the “landlord” or the “lessor.” The person who is entitled to occupy property is called the “tenant” or “lessee.”
As with any contract, the rental agreement should be in writing to avoid misunderstandings and should contain all of the terms agreed to by the parties. Before you enter into a rental agreement, you should read it carefully and discuss all of the terms and make sure any questions you have are answered. Any changes to the lease should be marked on the document and initialed by both parties.
The most common type of tenancy is a periodic tenancy, for example, a week-to-week or month-to-month tenancy. A periodic tenancy is automatically renewed unless either the landlord or the tenant gives written notice to terminate the tenancy at least 20 days prior to the end of the month. The tenancy cannot be terminated in the middle of any month unless the landlord agrees. Similarly, the landlord cannot terminate the tenancy except at the end of the month and only after twenty 20 days’ prior written notice to the tenant.
Another type of tenancy, usually called a “tenancy for a specific term,” is for a definite period of time, for example, a lease for one year. This type of agreement must be in writing and, if for longer than a one-year term, the signatures of the landlord and tenant must be notarized. The tenancy automatically terminates at the end of the specified rental period. Neither the rent nor the other rules of the tenancy may be changed during the specified period, except by agreement of both the landlord and the tenant. Except in particular circumstances like a major breach of the lease by the landlord, the tenant cannot break a lease.
Rental agreements for furnished homes or apartments should contain a detailed inventory of furniture or other personal property, along with a description of the condition of each item.
The rental agreement should cover all of the specifics of the arrangements, including who is responsible for utility charges, upkeep, repairs or alterations.
Just because something is agreed to in a lease does not necessarily mean it is enforceable by the landlord. Some clauses may be illegal, such as a waiver of rights under the Residential Landlord-Tenant Act, or limitations on the landlord’s liability for injury or damages.
Rental Precaution
Before renting property, a tenant should inspect the dwelling to be sure it meets his or her needs and is in acceptable condition. Upon moving in, make a list of all existing defects or damages, with both the landlord and tenant signing and keeping a copy of this list. Any commitments made by the landlord (such as a promise to make certain repairs) should be written into the lease, and all blank spaces should be filled in or crossed out.
Rent Increase
If there is a lease for a specified period of time, the rules of the tenancy, including the rent, may not be changed during that period. In the case of a periodic tenancy (such as month-to-month rental agreement), the rules, including the rent, may be changed upon 30 days’ written notice. Rent increases cannot be in retaliation for the tenant’s assertion of his or her lawful rights. The landlord may charge a late payment fee if the rental agreement expressly provides for the charging of a late fee.
Termination of a Tenancy
In addition to the procedures to end a tenancy as previously explained, if a landlord seriously violates his or her obligations under the rental agreement, a tenant may be able to terminate the tenancy without liability.
A landlord must follow certain procedures to terminate a tenancy. To terminate a periodic tenancy, a landlord must give at least 20 days’ written notice prior to the end of the month. However, if the tenant violates his or her obligations, for example, by failing to pay the rent, the landlord may terminate the lease through eviction proceedings. When a tenant is being evicted because of a rule excluding children or because of conversion to condominiums, 90 days’ notice is required.
If either party wishes to terminate the lease because of violations of the rental agreement by the other party, such action must comply with the terms of the agreement and landlord-tenant laws. A tenant who breaks a lease and moves without giving proper notice may be responsible for the rent for the balance of the term, and the landlord must make a reasonable effort to relet the premises in order to mitigate (or reduce) the damages. The liability and duties of each party vary depending on the terms of the rental agreement.
Deposit Requirement
A landlord may require a deposit to ensure that the tenant takes care of the unit and complies with the terms of the rental agreement. Deposit requirements cannot be discriminatory, nor may a deposit be increased to retaliate against a tenant. A nonrefundable fee cannot be called a “deposit.” A refundable damage or security deposit must be distinguished from nonrefundable cleaning fees.
If a deposit or nonrefundable fee is charged, the lease or rental agreement must be in writing, and must include the terms and conditions under which any deposit will be returned. A deposit cannot be withheld for normal wear and tear. If a tenant pays a deposit, the landlord must provide a document describing the condition of the rental unit. The landlord is required to keep deposits in a trust account, and must also provide the tenant with a receipt and the name and address of the depository. Any interest earned on a deposit belongs to the landlord.
The landlord has 14 days after a tenant moves out to return a deposit, or give a written explanation of why it (or any part of it) was not refunded. If a landlord does not comply, the full amount of the deposit must be refunded to the tenant, regardless of any claims by the landlord that the tenant is not entitled to a refund.
Landlord Obligations
The landlord must provide and maintain the rental property, and must obey the rules of the rental agreement. The landlord (or his/her representative) must be accessible to the tenant and must:
keep the premises up to code;
maintain the roof, walls and structural components;
keep common areas reasonably clean and safe;
provide a reasonable program for control of pests;
provide necessary facilities to supply heat, electricity, and hot and cold water;
provide reasonably adequate locks;
maintain appliances furnished with the rental unit; and
comply with any duties imposed by local laws.
The landlord may not knowingly rent property that is condemned. If a landlord fails to perform his or her duties, three types of remedies may be available to the tenant:
The right to terminate the rental agreement and move out after giving written notice to the landlord.
The right to initiate litigation or arbitration proceedings.
The right to make limited repairs and deduct their cost from the rent.
In general, before exercising any of the Landlord-Tenant Act’s remedies, the tenant: (1) must be current in rent payments, and (2) must give the landlord written notice of the defective condition.
Tenant Obligations
The tenant must:
pay rent;
keep the premises clean and sanitary;
not damage or permit damage to the unit;
dispose of garbage;
properly use fixtures and appliances;
restore the property to its initial condition, except for normal wear and tear at the end of the term;
comply with the rental agreement.
If the tenant fails to perform his/her duties, the landlord may seek to evict the tenant. If a tenant fails to maintain the premises, the landlord may:
Evict the tenant.
Make repairs and bill the tenant.
Sue the tenant for damages or to force compliance with the rental agreement.
Upkeep and Repairs
The landlord must maintain the premises in compliance with specific building codes and local ordinances; common areas must be kept clean and safe; facilities and appliances must be in reasonably good working order. Damage caused by weather, acts of God (such as earthquake, accident), or damage caused by unknown third parties are generally the responsibility of the landlord.
A tenant has certain responsibilities to keep the unit clean and safe, and may not deliberately or negligently destroy, damage or remove any part of the premises and must notify the landlord (in writing) when major repairs are needed.
Once notified of a defective condition and unless circumstances are beyond the landlord’s control, the landlord has a certain amount of time to make repairs:
24 hours to restore lost heat or water or remedy a condition that is imminently hazardous to life;
24 hours to provide hot or cold water, heat or electricity;
72 hours to repair major plumbing fixtures and, if supplied by the landlord, the refrigerator, range and oven;
not more than 10 days for other repairs.
Withholding Rent for Repairs
Except for the limited right to make minor repairs and deduct their cost from the rent, a tenant has no right to withhold rent. The cost per repair may not exceed certain limits and reasonable notice to the landlord is required.
Insurance
Unless the rental agreement provides otherwise, the tenant has no obligation to insure the premises. However, tenants should consider purchasing renter’s insurance on personal property and liability insurance for claims by third parties (such as guests) for personal injuries occurring on the premises, since the landlord’s insurance covers only the property.
Pets
Landlords may prohibit pets or establish their own rules or restrictions pertaining to pets. For example, landlords may require references and extra fees to cover special cleaning.
Right of Entry
In general, with tenant consent, a landlord has a right of entry to inspect the premises; make repairs; supply necessary or agreed services; or show the property to potential tenants, purchasers or contractors. Entry is limited to reasonable times, and two days’ notice of intent to enter is required. A landlord may enter the premises without the tenant’s consent if an emergency or abandonment occurs, or if the landlord obtains a court order. A landlord may not abuse his or her right of access to the premises to harass a tenant.
Eviction
The action by a landlord to remove a tenant from a rental unit is known as an eviction or an “unlawful detainer.” Some local housing codes define “just cause” for an eviction and outline procedures that must be followed.
In an eviction based on nonpayment of rent, a tenant may assert any claim for money owed the tenant by the landlord. The tenant’s claim (sometimes known as an equitable defense or setoff) must be related to the tenancy, such as the tenant’s payment of a gas bill that was the landlord’s responsibility under the rental agreement. In eviction actions strict rules and procedures must be observed. Generally, a legal eviction process involves:
Proper notice. Before evicting a tenant, the landlord must serve the required eviction notices using proper procedures.
Filing of a lawsuit. If the tenant fails to move out, a lawsuit must be filed to evict the tenant.
Entitlement to a court hearing. If the tenant disputes the reasons for the eviction, the tenant is entitled to a court hearing.
Sheriff’s involvement. If the tenant loses the court hearing, the sheriff would then be ordered to physically evict a tenant and remove the property in the unit. Only the sheriff, not the landlord, can physically remove a tenant who does not comply with an eviction notice and only after an unlawful detainer lawsuit has been filed.
Liability for attorneys’ fees. In an eviction dispute, the successful party is entitled to recoup costs and attorney fees.
Prohibited Eviction
Landlords are generally prohibited from locking a tenant out of the premises, from taking a tenant’s property for nonpayment of rent (except for abandoned property under certain conditions), or from intentionally terminating a tenant’s utility service. Various penalties exist for violating these protections.
Retaliatory evictions are also illegal. A landlord may not terminate a tenancy or increase rent or change other terms of the rental agreement to retaliate against a tenant who asserts his or her rights under the Landlord-Tenant Act or reports violations of housing codes or ordinances.
Settlement of Disputes
The landlord and tenant may agree to arbitration, asking a neutral party to settle the dispute. The process is usually quick and inexpensive, with the administrative fee shared equally unless otherwise allocated by the arbitrator. Landlord-tenant problems can also be resolved through informal mediation. In mediation, a third person intervenes between two disputing parties in an effort to reach an agreement, compromise or reconciliation. Intended to settle a dispute quickly and inexpensively, mediation can be requested by either a landlord or tenant and may be available without charge from city or county agencies. If they are dissatisfied with the mediation process, the parties may pursue legal remedies.

If you keep all those kids alive you will create a living hell through overpopulation. You’d then need to put a eugenics program in place to stop a population explosion putting unsustainable pressure on the environment. Before westerners walked into Africa birth rates were naturally high, along with high infant mortality, creating balance that allowed people to live sustainably in relationship to their natural environment. Even the minor injection of western medicine into developing countries has created chaos as overpopulation spirals out of control. I’m not for babies dying, and I’m all for spending government money wisely, but seriously, you can have naturaly high infant mortality or some form of state eugenics - which is preferable?

This article is just an ad for UNICEF. I hate it when someone tries to take two separate items and make them related. Why is US spending on military related to children starving to death? You could just as easily say the spending on make-up is wasteful spending and should be directed to starving children. The WORLD spends money on its military and that is why the US has to have a military. The military is necessary. The military also does a lot of work helping the starving and poor.

UNICEF in this article doesn’t mention that it helps kill roughly 40,000,000 babies a year across the world by supporting abortion. If they care so much about life why do they support this annual holocaust? You should look into who supports UNICEF and then maybe this article will start to make sense as to why they are down on the US military.
