Responsible?

I'm ambivalent towards that one. Hunger and starvation should be a priority with us all the time, everywhere. Not only is that the decent, human attitude, it is also the Christian thing to do.

However, we ain't the responsible party, since the situation was already there.
True, our actions may have made a bad situation worse, but the refugee camps were
in place long before 9-11, the masses were already in turmoil, starvation was already a threatening spectre if not a reality.

Sorry, I can't say Yea or Nay, I think a middle of the road attitude leaning toward humanitarian aid is the correct thing here.
