Two things

We need desperately to pray that hearts will be touched (both individuals and those in government) to do something to help these people, and we need to find charities that can, will and perhaps already are, helping, and give them some money with which to help these people. That's all we, as individuals, can do, it seems.

Famine hits Somalia in world less likely to intervene: Effort in 1990s to forcefully deliver humanitarian aid didn't succeed

The U.S. spends billions in anti-terror work (to protect themselves), but can't direct some of that money to supply food aid and to try to get the food aid to the right areas, past the Islamist murderers. Our world is so messed up. Just look at some photos of the starving people in Ethiopia...

I fear God's judgment, as I think it will be harsh. In today's world, these are our neighbours, and we're not feeding themw hen they're hungry...
