Le Monde reports that the US administration will destroy "several tons" of enriched, nutritious "cookies" that would have gone to malnourished children in Afghanistan and Pakistan from storage in Dubai and elsewhere.

The items are not American-style sweet treats but rather nutritious biscuits that provide much of the daily requirements of children — essentially to ward off starvation. The intended destruction of these products is a consequence of the DOGE closing of the US Agency for International Development earlier this year*.

"Why?"

During questioning about the matter in a senate committee, Michael Rigas, the person charged with administering the program, replied "I have no good response to that question."

One excuse for the action to waste the food has been that the expiration date on the packaging has past. This is not because the product is unsafe or no longer nutritious but rather because the delivery was delayed by Pres. Tr$mp's DOGE kiddies.

* Lest you be worried about this or other aspects of the DOGE process, it's OK. Elon Musk's sports car, launched in 2018, is apparently steady in an elliptical orbit around the Sun, where it will no doubt be a beacon of consolation to mothers in Afghanistan and Pakistan as they bury their children.

As anti-war protesters chanted to another president in the 1960s, "the whole world is watching."
