The Most Important Question in the World

I will be gone for a week and instead of asking for a guest blogger, I thought I'd leave us with a photo about an issue that's been on my mind greatly, lately -- unfortunately, I did not yet have time to write about it, although every little detail I learn saddens and angers me more. (Where do you start? The role of IMF in pushing bugdet controls that made it impossible to maintain emergency grain reserves on world's second poorest country? The crisis that was warned about for a whole year while the world turned away? The fact that we only ever talked about this country vis-a-vis yellowcake?)

So, for this week, here's the the most important question in the world -- most important save for the same question about every other little kid in the world.

Will this little girl make it?
