1 - I said "I might have pointed it out". I didn't say I will jump on any wild claim.

2 - Including indirectly Saddam may well be responsible for the deaths of millions if only very low millions. That would include all the deaths on both sides of the Iran Iraq war and the Gulf War. plus all of Saddam's victems inside Iraq, plus the deaths as a result of Saddam diverting Iraqs resources to weapons of mass destruction programs while his people suffer. Even if it doesn't reach millions its definitly close enough that I would just call it an exageration. If DRay had said billions, or if the actual deaths where only say 10K and he had said millions I would call it just straight out wrong. But if the actual deaths where in the high hundred thousands and maybe over a million then saying "millions" is at worse an exageration. It might not even be that, it might be literally true.
