I think you did very well to pick this up Abi. I heard Sama Haddad say on that program: "sanctions did not kill people ..." I have previously complained to the list moderator about having people on this List and Sama in particular who are obviously 'sanctions denyers'. What is interesting is how much airtime she and other members of the IPO get here in the UK. They have no constituency in Iraq and are only a recent creation. The media thirst for pure anti Saddam Hussein and they provide it.
