    Its hard to find documents on the net anymore, but when the sanctions regime between gulf war i and the second invasion killed god knows how many hundreds of thousands of iraqis they made some kind of claim that Saddam convinced all the demographers to change their results to exaggerate the death toll. They did not explain how saddam would do that or what the census people would comply.

    I wish i'd somehow been able to retain all these documents. People who can just keep and organze and search vast amounts of data, citations, documents, have a very sharp sword at hand.
