While I'm glad they made progress, it again was not enough. Our world leaders once again showed that they are not willing to forgive debt even to the poorest country that will never be able to pay it back. I guess, though, they did more than I expected them too. Doubling the aid to Africa is better than nothing I suppose. Then there is the matter of the Palestinian aid. The Palestinians are committed to fighting and running terrorist bombings on Israel like its their land when its not. They are not deserving of aid. Its not like its a few radicals, its the culture of the people.
