(...) A great explanation of this was given by Dave! (...) The original cite of "debunk this" deconstructs the UN statistics.

(...) No, I do not disagree with this comment. There is no inconsistency with what I am saying, either. The sanctions are ineffective, but are not a "punishment" any more than a fence is a punishment to a cow. (23 years ago, 5-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
