MOLLY IVINS SAID WHAT?

She said this: I think we have alienated our allies and have killed
more Iraqis than Saddam Hussein ever did.
Arthur Chrenkoff gives Molly a spanking: Really? More than all those dead Kurds of the Anfal
Operation and the Shia of the '91 uprising, more than
all the other domestic opponents butchered over the
years? And I'm not even counting the hundreds of
thousands of lives wasted by Saddam in his two wars of
aggression, and even more who denied food and medical
treatment so that Saddam could make a political point
about economic sanctions...
Read the whole thing.
E-mail Ivins at cre8ors-at-aol.com; subject line Molly Ivins.
Update:
Bob at Confederate Yankee e-mails some MollyMath...
Take estimates of 500,000-1 million soldiers and
civilians killed in the Iran-Iraq war triggered by
Saddam Hussein, add the 400,000 dead Iraqi civilians
USAID estimates to be in at least 53 mass graves found
in Iraq so far, and then add the very conservative
estimate of 22,000 dead as a result of Saddam's invasion
of Kuwait=1,422,000.
Even using iraqbodycount.net's high-end estimate of
25,000 dead (total, by both sides) the numbers aren't
even close, unless you use MollyMath, where a couple of
ten thousand and some change is worth more than a
million.
