Dubya beats out Bubba and Poppy (655.000 to 500,000 to 158,000 Iraqi dead) in the criminal game of Amerikkkan Genocide.

Dubya beats out Bubba and Poppy (655.000 to 500,000 to 158,000 Iraqi dead) in the criminal game of Amerikkkan Genocide. The title of #1 war criminal goes to “the Shrub”. The prize is (if the Democrats and the American people in general discover their balls) is a trial and then a lifetime sentence of hard labor in a maximum security prison in the Hague (or for nostalgia sake and to keep the neocons’ Nazi role models company, in a prison in Nuremberg).

One of the most telling moment in the story of the U.S. imposed sanctions against Iraq (under the Clinton regime) occurred during a 1996 interview with Madeleine Albright, who was at that time Clinton's UN ambassador.

Albright was appearing on the CBS show, "60 Minutes," and the dialog went as follows:
Lesley Stahl on U.S. sanctions against Iraq: We have heard that a half million children have died. I mean, that's more children than died in Hiroshima. And, you know, is the price worth it?

Secretary of State Madeleine Albright: I think this is a very hard choice, but the price--we think the price is worth it.
