    This isn't even the stupidest albright.

    In May 1996 Madeleine Albright, who was then the U.S. ambassador to the UN, was asked by 60 Minutes correspondent Lesley Stahl, in reference to years of U.S.-led economic sanctions against Iraq,

    We have heard that half a million children have died. I mean, that is more children than died in Hiroshima. And, you know, is the price worth it?

    To which Ambassador Albright responded,

    I think that is a very hard choice, but the price, we think, the price is worth it.
