Eh. This charity was done to prove how superior capitalism was to communism at the start of the Cold War and align hearts and minds to Western ideology.
This is right after WWII, when it was common practice to drop hundreds of unguided bombs out of an airplane and blanket entire sections of densely populated cities.
I’d argue we haven’t really changed that much. Charity just isn’t appealing to achieve current agendas.
