I'm with Rapaire.

The past histories and, indeed many of the current situations, of people and countries in the 'third world' are dreadful. I think the emphasis should be on what the 'west' is now doing to these countries (the IMF, for example, is a major force for evil in this) and what we, as human beings should do for other human beings, because they are in need.

Blamestorming is a pointless activity and produces nothing of any value what so ever.
