OutandUp - Right on with that comment! If it would have come out that a Conservative knew about what was going on for 12 years and didn;t tell anyone they would've been crucified byt Liberals but since it's the other way around the story conveniently disappears.

I saw an interesting stat recently.For every 1000 households in the US 800 some have a tv.In Costa Rica it was 200 something.In Iraq it was 49.Obviously the oil $ was not trickling down to the people.Now we know why.

And what shining sources can you cite that prove the levels of starvation that were 'not linked' to US sactions are a lie?

Out,

"The end does not justify the means."

Sure. Everyone is happy about children having medical treatment. What you're posing here is so glaringly obvious that it borders on rhetorical.

What person, liberal or conservative, would argue with your claim here?
If you can name what person would, I will go ahead and forgive the fact that you have yet to list a source!
 
Judge,
I've know for a long time the sanctions had nothing to do with the average iraqi citizen suffering. the liberals are the ones that were blind to that. saddam was selling plenty of oil thru syria, franch and russia. Koffi would get his cut and saddam would hoard all the profits for his cronies. no difference than other dictators throughout history. the whole sanctions were killing iraqi children was just BULLSHIT for the left to criticize AMERICA.

Again, if CNN kept this from the people and the left used it to criticize the US govt., how can you call CNN a tool of the left?
 
RFC,
I'm not saying CNN did not cover the whining of the left about sanctions. I'm saying CNN knew about all the torture, executions and lies iraq was putting out and they chose to not report it for 12 years so they could have access to baghdad bob.

Just ignore KFC, maybe he will go away. It's pointless to argue with someone who doesn't even live in our country.

the great Ignoramus Maximus has come to graze...

We should all feel more enlightened.

out,

My question exactly. If CNN is a tool of the left, why didn't they use this information to criticize the government?

kman,

I thought it was a valid question. Your argument about Americans who do not live in the US not having a say holds no water.
But let me ask you, why would the corporation that owns CNN support a position (the argument of the left) that argues against corporate ownership of the media?
 
1. The sanctions starved millions of Iraqi children: LIE

2. The UN, France, Syria and Russia made a killing off the oil for food program: TRUE

3. The French and Russians called for the end of sanctions a couple of year ago now they say it's not a good idea: TRUE

4. All of the above suggest the UN is worthless to the US: TRUE
 
Doesn't it make sense that if the US finds 100's of MILLIONS of US dollars and six months of medical supplies hoarded and numerous new palaces built for saddam and the cronies, maybe they have enough cash to feed the peasants? Huh!

sure out...

but the US is doing a horrible post war job at colonizing, I mean liberating the Iraqi people. What makes you think that they would do this correctly?
 
Sorry I'm not a light weigh. Rebuilding a country takes more than a few weeks. We were in Japan for more that 6 years and now they're doing fine. The US is still in Germany and we did the best we could, likewise with SK. The US tries to help other countries. We left Kuwait much better off. Your left wing BULLSHIT holds no water.

But this wasn't our plan. Our plan was to rid iraq of WMDs a depose Saddam. Period.

Where are the WMDs and Saddam?
