In answer to a press conference with George Bush, Tony Blair came out with yet another lie. To help justify taking action against Saddam Hussein, Blair mentioned that 400,000 Iraqis aged under 5 had died in the last 5(?) years of malnutrition - because of SH! This is now definite policy for just over a week by the UK Government - publicise various damning figures and blame SH instead of the sanctions. Blair is more dangerous than Bush I think. Could someone on the list email newsnight etc about this statement by Blair? I'm at work :( There is also the issue that by going to war, the US/UK have stopped the massive aid program to the Iraqi people, including Basra. This will lead to further misery and death and they were warned!
