human shields question, page-12

Hi Milesg ... sorry, still not convinced.

A story written by a UK journo that has only 'one line' relating to WHO report of fourfold increase in reported leukemia's ... ???

The rest of the story is an account of the exact situation I mentioned ... hospitals in desperate need of financial assistance .. denied due to Saddam's policies.

The increase incidence is probably due to better reporting regime ... the article states no way of knowing existed prior to 1990.

I am not convinced ...

The sooner Saddam is removed and UN economic sanctions lifted and a secular government is put in place to rebuild Iraq infrastructure the better ...

These folks need assistance instead of being used as propaganda fodder ...

I still say that the 'human shields' exponents might like to find something USEFUL to do instead of playing politics ... which is what this thread is about ...

Cheers ...


This is only my view ... read the red stuff.
