Headquarters of Médecins Sans Frontières in Geneva

Médecins Sans Frontières or Doctors Without Borders, is a secular humanitarian-aid non-governmental organization best known for its projects in war-torn regions and developing countries facing endemic disease. Médecins Sans Frontières was created in 1971 by a small group of French doctors, in the aftermath of the Biafra secession, who believed that all people have the right to medical care regardless of race, religion, creed, or political affiliation, and that the needs of these people supersede respect for national borders.

-text='''Beelzebub''' was reportedly the name of a [[deity]] worshiped in the [[Philistine]] city of [[Ekron]]. Little is known about this god and his worship, and the name itself appears to be a Hebrew variation designed to denigrate the deity as the "Lord of the Flies." Originally, it may have referred to a "Lord of the High Place (Zebul)" or possibly the god of a place called Zebub. The term appears in Christian texts as the name of a [[demon]] or [[devil]], often interchanged with '''Beelzebul.'''
