also admitted that during the Clinton Administration, the Clinton Sanctions (which she approved) killed over 1/2 MILLION Iraqi children.

When questioned about it by Diane Sawyer, Albright admitted that, Yes. The Clinton Sanctions
killed over 500,000 Iraqi children....but "It was worth it."



I do NOT want an endorsement from ANYONE who believes that killing 500,000 CHILDREN is "worth it,", and I can't believe ANYBODY could be so callous about 1/2Million Dead Children.

I don't want that blood on MY hands.
