"yer confusion" I think you need to go back and read your own words Bobert because you are clearly confused about whet you said.

Bobert one day:
"What you get from me is gleaned strictly from the Washington Post, The New York Times and the TV news"

Bobert another day:
"No, T, that is not my source... My source is http;//www.justforiegnpolicy.org/iraq/iraqdeaths.html

You are throwing up a smoke screen because you are unable to answer simple straightforward answers, yet you seem to think you know all the answers.

Where did any of your "facts" about:

"the US even provided the bad gas that was used against the Kurds"

"Saddam rewarded with all kinds of booty, including golden spurs and an unplated M-16 rifle"

appear in any of the sources you cited.

What was the other booty?
