Yeah right! But be sure not to tarnish the "very reputable organisation" on
a blog post. DO NOT include adverse links to such a post - because if you
do? And SOPA/PIPA pass, your entire blog site could be pulled down after
they complain to the "relevant online Copyright/IP Authorities." So much
free speech to expose basic human rights (food, clothes and shelter)
injustices going forward, right?

My guess is as good as anyone's. Maybe the local initiative's success
threatened their foodchain? Global fundraising system? Hence KILL! future
prospects of all such local initiatives likes of: (re:
http://www.the-star.co.ke/national/national/34256-kenyans4kenyans-kitty-raises-over-sh81million)
? That disrupt precious dollars from out there from percolating
through
an otherwise "properly established system"? Collected putting up an
'angelic' face as a tool to demand special protections by *everyone*
(including on icann policies)? To put brakes on emergent, terrible,
"Kenyans4Kenyans" model that diminishes their longstanding, global
established brand as "the only ones who truly care" impression? Maybe the
starving do not live at the NGO's "politically correct" dry Northern Kenya
areas? Or releasing the food to the starving would have meant the problem
is REALLY  getting solved therefore Kenyan could stop giving more food,
more money? I have no idea what on earth motivated them to do such inhuman
acts, but you bet we're pissed off with Red Cross!

Today is among the worst days for *anyone* to dare shower Red Cross with
traditional praises over here.
