This photo (

was
shared around Facebook last week, juxtaposing the first beracha of
Bentching (which states that Hashem "gives food to all flesh, for His
kindness is everlasting.") with starving children somewhere in Africa. How
do we deal with the obvious contradiction? Similarly how do we explain what
we say in Ashrei every day "poseach es yadecha umasbea lol chai ratzon" in
the face of starvation?
