There is Not Enough Food for Everyone in Haiti

People desperate for food in Haiti


People are desparate for food in the earthquake-leveled country of Haiti. Quoting an article from Yahoo! News:

“Brazilian U.N. peacekeeping troops fired tear gas at a frenzied crowd of thousands of Haitians crowding a food handout outside the wrecked presidential palace as delays in getting help to earthquake survivors persist.

They’re not violent, just desperate. They just want to eat,” Brazilian Army Colonel Fernando Soares said. “The problem is, there is not enough food for everyone.”
