Is that the same UN that got rich on kickbacks from Saddam Hussein while
closing their eyes to his starving to death Iraqi children during the
1990s?

Oh, so the starving of IRaqi children was the UNs' fault and not the
fault of the USA??

False dilemma.

Blame the responsible party; Saddam Hussein and his cronies.

Anything but to blame the USA right?

Don't forget the rest of the Security Council who voted fo rthe
sanctions regime.


Not quite. The "no fly zones" for example were never approved by the
UNSC, and were only enforced by the UK and US. The rest of the UNSC
didn't say or do anything about it though.



Who backed and supported Saddam?

Just about all teh major Western Powers - US political support,
Russian and French weapons, no doubt us Evil Brits (tm) had some hand
in it as well.


Oh they most certainly did - check out the Scott Inquiry.
