The Pros And Cons Of Doctors Without Borders

356 Words2 Pages
Doctors without borders is a NPO that focuses on world-wide medical care that acts with total independence. While this sounds fine and dandy, there comes some negative aspects to this as well. More specifically, danger and terrorism. These doctors travel all around the globe and place themselves in danger to provide care to those in need without bias. Which brings the point to terrorism- Last year in Kunduz, Afghanistan a supposed U.S. airstrike was carried out on a Doctors Without Borders trauma center. The reason? There was supposed undeniable proof that the Taliban were using that trauma center as a base of operations.
A NPO that gives unbiased humanitarian aid, so why would they not help men and women and children branded as terrorists
