DESCRIPTION:    "When the water came, we moved our women and children to high ground. 
 Three of my daughters stayed behind to help the men pack up whatever 
 belongings we could carry with us… within minutes, the current got too 
 strong and the waters rose head high." This is how a villager from 
 Sardaryab, a village in northwest Pakistan, lost two of his daughters ages 
 16 and 17. He was only able to save his youngest daughter. "Their bodies 
 were found three days later, dumped on the bank by receding waters about 6 
 kilometers down the river." --Drowning Pakistan: What It Means for the 
 People and Who Is Responsible, A World to Win News Service, republished in 
 Revolution newspaper.\n\n\nWhat do global warming, deforestation have to do 
 with the disastrous flooding that has affected millions in Pakistan? Why 
 have the huge resources of the Pakistan and US with large militaries not 
 been allocated to help these millions of suffering people? And what does 
 happen when "help" arrives?\n\n    "The problem is not a lack of resources, 
 but that the interests of those who control them and the whole imperialist 
 system are in antagonistic contradiction to the interests of the masses of 
 people everywhere.\n\n    "The U.S.—and its junior partner in crime, the 
 Pakistani military—might as well just come out and admit that their arms 
 and technology exist to oppress the people and that they don't give a damn 
 what happens to millions of poor and common people in Pakistan—except 
 insofar as "instability" threatens their interests." --- AWTW News 
 Service\n\n\n\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2010/09/18/18659184.php
