For example, the policy of applying the most draconian sanctions in living memory totally failed to improve conditions. After they were imposed in 1990, the number of children under five who died increased by a factor of six. By 1995 something like half a million Iraqi children were dead as a result of our efforts to help them. <a href="http://www.commondreams.org/views05/0412-22.htm">http://www.commondreams.org/views05/0412-22.htm</a> |
