The problem with the Global South

 A title from the Times of India:

Russia fends off Ukrainian aggression, retaliates by destroying village; Civilians film the interception

This title, appearing not in the blog of some unhinged individual but in a major media outlet, perfectly illustrates the foggy ethics characteristic for the Global South (formerly the Third World). The lack of clear understanding of good and evil, and of the need for the good to prevail over evil, is the root cause of the incurable poverty and other societal ills of the Global South countries.
