Can't win for trying. Sanctions were supposed to act as a catalyst for a homegrown regime change. Sanctions were the alternative to war and were UN mandated. Many, many people talked about the Iraqi kids, I know I did, but as you say, no one was listening. The modus operandi of the UN is to institute sanctions first, followed by tougher measures later, if the first set of sanctions fail. By the way, tens of thousands of children die of starvation every day. Little is done. The U.S. is the largest food donor nation to Africa, so much so, that Bob Geldof said recently in a media blitz, to get the world's attention on Africa's plight, that the U.S.'s efforts there puts Europeans to shame.
