Budget Scare
Alex did a good job refuting the BBC claim that no cash was going as humanitarian to Afghanistan. Of course it’s a bogus claim. The fact is cash is going to Afghanistan. Read Alex’s rant for the facts, some thing BBC attempted to distort through deception. Stating that it’s omitted from the budget is implying that it’s not gonna get paid. Of course, a summary of actual cash expenditures indicates it was paid. No bias here, right?
Update: Go here scroll to page 5 of 25 and you’ll see $296M in humanitarian and rebuilding aid budgeted for aid in Afghanistan. Notice it is the 2003 budget. The BBC didn’t get the facts straight! Thanks to Jay at the Daily Rant!
