It is a money maker for a number of animal organizations and certain media companies. The money and publicity they receive ensures the common occurring crimes of animal cruelty remains out of the realm of law enforcement (with rare exceptions separate from ineffective animal cop type teams) and in the greedy little hands of the animal organizations and media giants that profit from keeping exceptional that which is common (i.e. animal cruelty and dogfighting).
Law enforcement gets to continue to do little to nothing, animal organizations get to continue profiting, and almost every animal that is the victim of animal cruelty and dog fighting will never be helped.

North Korean Nuclear Weapons; A Russian,Chinese, Not Just American Nightmare
The world is held hostage to the actions of countries in possession of nuclear weapons. As humanity sits on edge, wondering what North Korea will do next, and how Trump will respond, even if this tense situation de-escalates, the threat of nuclear weapons will not go away. It is only getting worse, as other nations and terrorist organizations pursue nuclear weapon ambitions.
It is in the interest of China, Russia, and every nation on this planet to see that this threat is contained. Nations must put aside politics, religions, rivalries, hatreds, and everything else that divides them, and realize that if nuclear weapons are unleashed, the conflicts between people and nations will become the last thing on everyone's mind.
Nuclear weapons and North Korea, nuclear weapons anywhere, are not an American problem. It is a world problem. One of the greatest contribution world leaders like Putin, Trump and Xi Jinping can make towards securing a future for mankind is to stop nuclear weapons proliferation and significantly reduce the number of these weapons.

Islamic Nations Turn Their Backs On The Rohingyas
Rohingyas fleeing persecution are being turned away from Bangladesh. Some of the people turned away are wounded and sick. Children and women are included in this group. Malaysia and Indonesia, wealthier nations than Bangladesh, are also turning away Rohingyas. There are Rohingyas that have died after being turned away. There are Rohingyas adrift at sea with nowhere to go.
Some of the richest countries in the world are oil rich Islamic nations. They squander their wealth on spreading jihad, hate and intolerance. Their doors never open to Muslims fleeing war and poverty. They turn away from desperate Rohingyas fleeing war, poverty and persecution,

Rohingyas, Not Islamic Jihadists, Must Be Protected
Minorities living in Islamic majority lands have long faced persecution and ethnic cleansing. This includes the Yazidis, middle east Christians, middle east and North African Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, Baha'is and others. There is also the highly destructive and unproductive all out effort by many Islamic jihadists and their Jew hating supporters to destroy the one small Jewish state in the world. Many want no reconciliation or peace between Palestinian Arabs and and Jews because their real agenda is Islamic domination and the complete annihilation of Israel's Jewish population.
The pervasive and toxic doctrine of Islamic expansion by war, terror and violent jihad keeps the world washed in blood.
Islamists have enslaved the Yazidi people, after killing their men and taking thousands of Yazidi women and girls as slaves. Thousands of Yazidis are still held captive by Islamists, where these helpless women and young girls are being raped and tortured daily.
Islamic jihadists use every excuse to justify their violence. Some Islamists argue that wrongs against Muslims or verses in the Quran gives them the right to kill, rape and enslave.
The brutality, cruelty and evil of the Islamists and jihadists does not give anyone the right to act as they do. No wrong justifies another. Two wrongs never make a right.
There are those that have no sympathy towards the Rohingyas because of what Islamists and jihadists have done. But the cruelty of others is never an excuse to lose one's humanity.
The need to protect civilian populations from harm is not contingent on faith, religion, race, or politics. Deliberate attacks and the deliberate harming of noncombatant civilian populations is wrong no matter where it takes place and no matter by whom. Islamic jihadists abuse this principle by deliberately hiding in civilian populations or by using civilians as shield, for which there is a failure to hold jihadists accountable.
Waging war and using civilian populations as a cover is a war crime, and must stop being ignored by the useful idiots that support the Islamic jihadists. At the same time, no civilian population should be the deliberate target, or deliberately harmed, by any government army, militia, or armed organization.
Rohingya civilians, women, children, and all Rohingya non combatants, must be protected.

Maduro Diet - Eating Dogs, Cats, Flamingoes And Anything that Moves In Venezuela
Hunger and starvation are driving desperate Venezuelans to do things that were unthinkable before corruption and dictatorship ruined that country. People are eating dogs, cats, horses, pigeons, and protected species like flamingoes and anteaters. Zoos have been broken into where tapirs, peccaries, horses and other animals have been slaughtered and eaten.
Zoo animals are starving. It will not be long before large zoo animals like hippos, elephants, zebras, not just tapirs and horses, either starve to death or are slaughtered by desperate people.
While people go hungry, while food and medicine shortages are widespread, while previously under control diseases like measles and malaria are spreading, the regime leaders and their families live like kings and queens. They and their children are millionaires and billionaires. Hugo Chavez is said to have been worth a billion dollars by the time he died. Vice president Tarek El Aissami, who has opened Venezuela up to drug interests and Hezbollah and other jihadist operatives, is estimated to be worth hundreds of millions, if not billions of dollars.
After having stolen so much, the regime is determined to hold on to power, no matter what the cost. They claim to be socialists fighting for the people, as they beat, murder, jail and starve the Venezuelan people.

Red Cross Expose Will Not End Inefficacy, Harm And Corruption In The Nonprofit World
A Newsweek story that appeared on the internet last week raised a number of red flags concerning the Red Cross..... "Red Cross won't release Harvey relief numbers, continuing a long, troubling trend........... A 2015 investigation by NPR and ProPublica concluded the Red Cross had built only six permanent homes in Haiti, even though it collected almost 500 billion in donations......A quarter of the money donated to the American Red Cross after the 2010 earthquake went toward internal spending - 124 million in total."
It is an easy story to reference through a simple internet search. This story should be the impetus to finally look critically at the nonprofit world. But if the past is the predictor of the present and future, it will not be. Nothing will change, and business as usual will continue.
The multi trillion dollar world of nonprofits continues to be a place of little accountability.
Although there are nonprofits that are above board and that operate with integrity, there are many nonprofits (considered reputable) that do not.
When it comes to voiceless populations, especially in the realm of animal welfare, animal cruelty, dog fighting, conservation, wildlife protection, and more, the exploitation by a number of organizations considered legitimate and reputable is widespread and pervasive. It is exploitation that is completely off of the radar.
It is easy for these organizations to run ineffective, often harmful programs that they insist helps stop animal cruelty or dogfighting, or that helps wildlife or something else. Voiceless populations cannot reveal the truth, and those with voices do not care. Shamefully, no one critically examines the efficacy of these organizations.
And so on and on it goes.....corruption, ineffectiveness and harm in the nonprofit world.
People claim to care about animals and the environment, but not enough to put animals and conservation ahead of domestic animal, wildlife and conservation organizations. People are more loyal to nonprofits than to the causes and populations nonprofits are supposed to serve.
The Pope's Environmental Statements. The Unaddressed Crisis
There is an environmental crisis. It is not pending. It is not years away. It is here now. Even if humanity does not wipe itself out with nuclear weapons, humanity will not survive long term if it keeps degrading the environment beyond repair. Every day thousands of tons of plastic enter into the oceans - plastic and oil based waste that are virtually indestructible. Depleting the oceans, plastic poisoning and other poisoning, war, trawling the seabeds, overfishing, destroying coral reefs, mangroves, seagrasses, and rainforests are but some of mankind's destructive practices killing earth's richness, biodiversity, and survivability for humans and many other species.
It is easy to talk about this crisis. But words are not actions.
Religions can numb people into believing humans can procreate without limit. It is impossible for this planet to sustain a population this large. Already the large extant human population has decimated the environment and is creating an ever dismal future for others.
Population growth directly impacts the consumption some religious leaders insist must be curtailed. Meanwhile, religious and political leaders of all faiths rarely live lives of simplicity. Many set instead examples of extravagance and indulgence. To his credit, this pope is not a man of extravagance.
There is too much at stake, too much that is unsustainable, too much that is being lost and that is already lost, for religious leaders from all faiths, including the pope, who is the leader of the largest single religious denomination, not to consider what role religions and religious doctrines have in a world that is being destroyed.
