I'm not negative except when it comes to being manipulated, and this video, make no mistake, is manipulating you. If you decide to investigate this non-profit organization and independently come to the conclusion that this is worthy of your support - then go for it. But if you just watch the video and share it and/or support them financially without a shred of any kind of scrutiny beyond your emotional reaction beyond watching the video - then you have been played. If that doesn't bother you .. then OK. Suit yourself. It bothers me however. Plus there are a number of other issues beyond the whole chain letter aspect that raise a huge number of red flags for me.

And come on. Before this video you didn't know there were warlords in Africa that do terrible things? That seems doubtful. Sorry.
