And this surprises everyone? If not despot dictators skimming large amounts of cash of 10 to 20% for themselves to prop up their salaries and lifestyle to safely tuck away in Swiss Bank accounts.
The World is now learning how lucrative it is to solicit Billions of Dollars annualy from duped Donors worldwide. Self Professed Aid Groups showing pitiful images of starving children prey on the publics sense of decency are scamming 4 billion dollars for every 10 Billion Dollars it takes in at 40%.
Aid agencies justify this for themselves in obscenely lucrative salaries and consultant fees. These outrageous fees and salaries are on a scale that pales in comparision to what Despot Dictators 20% take they skim off the top, resulting in little food ever reaching it's intended receipients.
Thus a vicious circle of deception in order to continue to televise and show these same starving masses to a sympathetic public in order to scam even more cash year after year and decade after decade to come .
Aid donors fail to deliver in Afghanistan: studyPeter O'Neil, Canwest News Europe Correspondent,
Canwest News ServicePublished: Tuesday, March 25, 2008LA BOURBOULE, France - The world's aid donors are failing Afghanistan despite pouring billions into the country since the fall of the Taliban in 2001, according to a study released by the Oxfam aid agency.
The study concluded that more than $10 billion in promised aid hasn't been delivered, and added that 40 per cent of money intended for development is funnelled back to donor countries and their citizens as a result of consultant fees and salaries, the BBC reported Tuesday on its website.
"Western countries are failing to deliver," the British broadcaster concluded in its evaluation of the report by Oxfam.
