When you kill 500,000 children in order to impose your will on other countries, then you shouldn't be surprised when somebody responds in kind.

We've killed a million Iraqis since the start of the Gulf war - mostly by blocking humanitarian aid.

In 1900, 180-plus out of every 1,000 African-American babies died.

At least 23,000 civilians have also died in the Iraqi killing field and the U.S. is stuck in a quagmire.

Saddam Hussein didn't kill 3,100 people on Sept. 11. Osama bin Laden did, and as far as we know he's still alive.

There are 500,000 poor children in this state that did not choose to be poor, and we have to take care of them.

I feel horribly vindicated. Three thousand people died who didn't have to die.

I find the fact that more than 750,000 children still die every year around the world because of severe dehydration due to diarrhea unacceptable.

In large part, thanks to widespread immunization, the number of young children dying each year has declined significantly, from approximately 14 million in 1979 to slightly less than eight million in 2010.

Of those who die from avoidable, poverty-related causes, nearly 10 million, according to UNICEF, are children under five. They die from diseases such as measles, diarrhoea, and malaria that are easy and inexpensive to treat or prevent.
