Actress will go on a hunger strike

Actress Mia Farrow announced that she is going on a hunger strike.

Farrow, 64, is outraged at the humanitarian crisis in Darfur, so therefore, she is going to stop eating.

Farrow said she will go on a “fast of only water as a personal expression of outrage at a world that is somehow able to stand by and watch nocent men, women and children needlessly die of starvation, thirst and disease.”

I feel bad for the people of Darfur, and I completely understand where she is coming from.  However, I don’t belief her hunger strike will make a difference.

Going on a hunger strike won’t help the people suffering in Darfur.  The only thing a hunger strike will do is cause Farrow to die hungry.
