I’m no fan of Clinton, but that 1,000,000 figure is BS.
Saddam starving his people to fight back against sanctions. The gassed norther Kurds, draining and burning the southern wetlands in Iraq to drive the people from their land. Finally the oil for food program that didn’t really result in food getting to the people.
I’m not positive of the time line of all of these events.
Oh, I forgot to add...
NO (0) Iraqi’s were killed or died BECAUSE of the embargo. Saddam had enough money to buy 35 mansions for himself, so it’s fair to say that he had enough money to feed the people.
