DEC Gaza Appeal

[andygates]

With the BBC refusing to show the DEC Gaza appeal ad (spineless feckers), here's the gen: it's a rubble pile and the civilians aren't exactly having a great time.  DEC don't fire off appeals willy-nilly, only when it's really grim for lots of people, and DEC are not political.  They can get the aid to the people on the ground, because they already are.  Here's the donation form.

Too many people in need, too few funds (and I know that is all relative), so you have to put in some level of prioritisation into your charitable giving, at least at a personal level.

Long term suffering v short term disaster recovery
Cute animals v starving children
Local v Global

So many causes, how to choose?
