10,000 were killed by malnutrition the world over, aged 5 or under. Today, tomorrow, and every day thereafter unless we act. Will we be doing anything to save these little, innocent, helpless people?

I'm a parent. I can't begin to fathom the horror of my child dying from malnutrition.

Please forgive my confusion regarding Libya. We spent more than $1 billion on just the first day of this war, vs. http://www.doctorswithoutborders.org/press/release.cfm?id=4064&cat=press-release">$350 million spent by all of the rich nations on childhood hunger in an entire year. I guess if we blow stuff up it's a better way to save lives.
