G-8 to Focus on Terrorism, Africa
President Bush and colleagues in the rich-country club will focus on terrorism in all its aspects at this year's economic summit, they will consider improving intelligence cooperation as well as other measures to combat poverty. :: This AP report is submitted for your ten kings (Rev 17:12-14) files. I applaud G8 efforts to combat poverty. Who could argue with that? But, they are laboring under the assumption that poverty breeds terrorism. This is misguided. There are poor people all over the world, but their response to their situation does not include blowing people up. OBL came from a wealthy Saudi family and yet he still became a terrorist.
