Amnesty International blames rise of malnutrition, disease, and death in Iraq on U.N. sanctions

According to the "human rights organization", Amnesty International, the rise of malnutrition, disease, and death in Iraq lies squarely at the feet of United Nations' sanctions. They fail to mention that Saddam Hussein has skimmed millions of dollars from the "oil for food" program for the purpose of beefing up his military at the expensive of the Iraqi people. How do you think he pays for all those missiles he keeps firing at coalition aircraft patrolling the "no-fly zones"? You can make your feelings known at aiusama@aiusa.org (email address for A.I.'s Washington, DC office). Is it just me, or isn't it fishy that "usama" is in that email address? Hmmmmmmmmm.

D*mn right! Contact A.I. and make your feelings known. I just did and I feel great! Might not have done any good, but I'll sleep better tonight. Thanks.
