Bush on the Oprah show 2000
'On September 19, 2000, Danny Muller and Andrew Mandell, both of Voices in the Wilderness, went to the Oprah show. Her guest that day was presidential hopeful George W. Bush. They had come to ask important, unscripted questions and to find out if our future 43rd President would toe the same line on the Iraq issue as the administrations of his father and Bill Clinton.

'Halfway through the show, impatient for the canned question period from the audience, Mr. Muller stood up and asked Bush, "Mr. Bush, would you continue the Democrats' policy of bombing and sanctions that kill 5,000 children a month in Iraq?" The show immediately cut to commercial... Both Muller and Mandell were escorted out of the audience for their acts of conscience.'

'In September 2001, Thomas Nagy, a professor at George Washington University, released a report detailing the U.S. government's foreknowledge of the devastating effects of sanctions and the impacts of the Gulf War on civilian infrastructure. The document, published in The Progressive, outlined the outcomes of impure water and insufficient sanitation on the most vulnerable members of society: the children. He cites the Geneva Convention as precedent for why these actions are illegal and punishable under international law.'
