There is a lot more animal abuse in the Middle East compared say to Europe so it would make sense if there were more animal organizations but there aren't enough actually. There are only two organizations I am aware of in Kuwait for example, Animal Friends and PAWs and thats not a lot. krachi: I really wish people did care about animals as much as you think they do.

Any reader will lift a finger for an animal. not necessarily humans.

There are differences betwen us humans and dogs. I agree but not much.. One of them is our ability to express our feelings. If we hurt we cry , bitch, moan, voice our pain. and wait for some one to do something about it. When a dog cries in pain he cant voice it. Dogs love their masters with an innocent love; with no strings attached just pure love. When humans do it they expect all sorts of shit in return.Did you know that dogs suffer all the same diseases that humams do?? Diabetes, Arthritis, Liver disease. Glaucoma ?? Only problem with them is that unlike you they cant walk into a hospital flash their Civil ID and get treated. Grow up man .. its 3 kd .. dont have to rob a bank to dish it out. @ kyx

There are hundreds and thousands of different organizations in the world, some dealing with humans, some with animals, some with wildlife, some with trees, some with dolphins, some with rocks, some with cars etc.. According to your mentality all organizations that have nothing to do with humans should be abolished. That's being very stupid. Whats great about us humans is that we can care about more than one organization at the same time. Stop being cheap and donate KD3. kyx I have no idea why you are turning this into Man Vs Dog but you’re being very lame and naive.

As such I would rather not comment on that. Separate issues????? Exactly!!! Dogs seem to have more precedence over humans?? Or so I think is the case with you. A human and a dog are involved in an accident and the dog is given preferential treatment than the human...I'm sure the human wont mind that... would he? Naah, I didnt think so either! @13

Kids are more important than animals! Or are they not? Malnutrition, infanticide, foetuscide, child labor, war children, orphans, violated, raped, molested, abandoned kids need our help! Don't look far; Iraq has plenty of them, Palestine has them, Yemen has them, for fucks sake Lebanon has them... Beta, Peta or whatever... please people start with kids! They are God's own.... @Patrick: your example made no shit sense; mate. Why are you all castigating Babloa… he made a valid point! Kids are more important than animals! Or are they not?
