Last month sanctions were killing millions of iraqi kids and doing nothing useful. Not to mention there was no "proof" that Iraq had weapons.
Now, the same people who were saying that want to keep the sanctions in place and need to disarm Iraq. HAHA
You guys kill me.
Where's wonton telling me that the story is a govt sponsored lie?

"Regime change in Baghdad is not a condition for lifting economic sanctions on Iraq," the official told the Interfax news agency on condition of anonymity.
"There is a UN Security Council resolution for this, which clearly stipulates the disarmament of Iraq -- something international inspectors must decide," he said, adding that Russia supported the return of UN inspectors.

The only thing said here is that :
- a regime change was and is not a clause to end the sanctions ( Regime change was a US agenda).
- the UN resolution can be "cancelled" only once the UN is satisfied that Iraq meets the disarment clause. Obviouly it did and does.
I understand the urgency for the US to get their hands on the Oil, but they could show restraint ... would look better.
