Any word on how much money some of these rich Islamic countries going too kick in, never hear about the Saudies ever kicking in any money except for terrorist attacks.

OK! That's right, I study carefully everything that I post, but along the way can it be that conditions change, and then it will be the subject of another thing, that is, with hindsight, it might be a little difficult to be constantly updated, with all that happens in our environment, although it would be optimal,

That's correct but I honestly thought you may have had some detailed information.

I can click it and quote it for you.

The Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah Bin Abdul Aziz Al Saud has ordered a donation of 50 Million USD to the Somali refugees to be used in providing them with food supplies and that in cooperation with the World Food Program designated to this purpose. Another 10 Million USD will also be donated to provide the famine stricken refugees with the necessary medications and vaccinations and that in cooperation with the World Health Organization.

That goes some way toward the $200 million I have heard reported on the television.
