Nope...sorry...Saddam did this, ( took the Oil for food money, and tried to build up his miliary )...

They didn't start receiving money from the Oil for Food program until several years after the sanctions began.

NO

The Northeast Intelligence Network is saying that the U.S. casualties reported are grossly innacurate.

NIN

We will have to wait and see as to the validity of their claims...

"U.S. Marines on Wednesday defended their decision to attack a mosque compound in the Iraqi town of Falluja saying the fact insurgents were firing from inside meant it lost its status as a protected structure. "U.S. Marines observed anti-Coalition Forces today firing from the Haj Musheen Abdul Aziz al-Kubaysi mosque complex in Falluja," the Marines said in a statement. "In order to gain access to the compound housing the mosque, Marines used air support to breach a wall located several hundred yards away from the actual mosque structure." "

Somebody in a Mosque who has a gun just turned it into a bunker. And bunkers are legitimate targets.

At least that's how I see it.
