So I've missed essentially the week in news. I will try to catch up somewhat and follow up on some stories.
INLA: "Armed Struggle is over"

Drought In Kenya threatens Economy
One would think that in this modern day someone would devise some sort of mechanism to help people like this who suffer from droughts seasonally.

Stem Cell Breakthrough
Its a very touchy subject for many people but I believe stem cell research is an excellent idea, as long as its kept in check.

Obama and Afghanistan
Obama's been receiving heavy criticism for his handling of Afghanistan and Iraq.

Meanwhile a family friend of mine Mr. Tendai Biti, has been part of the MDC trying to balance the Economy of the country which has suffered heavily under Mugabe.
