Wanton imperialist intervention and dictatorial rule have together been responsible for the deaths of more than a million people since 1991. And yet, according to both Tony Blair and the former US secretary of state Madeleine Albright, the ‘price is worth it’. The Iraqi people are fully aware that Saddam committed all his major crimes while an ally of western powers.”
