The new site, www.peacebombs.us asks visitors to submit answers to this question: "What is your vision of the positive equivalent of the Atom Bomb?"
Jeff Hutner, a documentary film maker and one of the site's founders, remarks, "For a long time, I have been saddened by the images of war and the death of soldiers and innocent civilians in Iraq.

There has been some press, not a lot, as we here in the United States grapple with our own issues, particularly our involvement in Iraq.But a famine does exist, affecting several countries, including Niger, a place the United Nations has called the second poorest country in the world.
On its website, Concern, an Irish-based relief organization initiated to assist with the Biafran famine in 1968, offered poignant information regarding the plight of the Niger nation.

Most of us living in the United States have no way, intellectual or experiential,...
