Hmm? Sanctions against Iraq really worked didn't they? How long did the the UN rail against Saddam? 20 years? How many petro dollar profits did he accumulate at the expense of the Iraqi children?
Have sanctions against the likes of Iran and North Korea stopped them?

Agree with rm, sanctions are a sop to the anti war, emotion driven pacifists!

Where were Saddam's petro dollars banked? Banks in New York and recycled into the U.S. economy, So the U.S. was the one that profited from his petro dollars, until he swicthed to the Euro which are banked in Europe (That's why France and Germany were so against attacking Iraq.). So you're starting to get close, keep digging.
