Zeev's Turnips Talk Politics (ZTTP)

[otraque]

true--the most conservative estimate is that 500,000 thousand died(others go as high as 3 million) directly the result of the sanctions .
The idea was generated from the U.S, the purpose, if enough Iraqi's suffer and die because of the sanctions the people would revolt.
The U.N. was just rubber stamping our grim cold-blooded strategy.
Not like Herbert Hoover, who happened to be a man of most excellent character, went AGAINST his congress and the U.S. public and poured in food to the people starving under Stalin's "starve the people" project(it saved millions of lives).
Now that is what i call "Do The Right Thing" LEADERSHIP.
