"BASRA, Iraq (CNN) -- A giant food distribution complex seized Wednesday by U.S. and British forces in this city grappling with hunger contained massive amounts of food.

A walk through only about 20 percent of the warehouses in the complex revealed that tens of thousands of tons of supplies -- including huge quantities of baby milk -- were being stored in Iraq's second-largest city, which has been wracked by a food shortage.

There are vast amounts of food staples, tea, sugar, tires, car batteries and sewing machines in the warehouses."

Now, explain to me about the food shortages caused by the UN sanctions?

But surely this just a conspiracy by the west to provide an excuse to attack Iraq. Just like 911 was carried out by the CIA and MOSSAD bombs its own citizens and the Indian Intelligence agency kill their own hindus in kashmir. Its all just an excuse to attack the peaceful and tolerant oppressed muslims of the world
