Galloway's Numbers

George Galloway doesn't hesitate to accuse the US of being responsible for 100,000 civilian deaths in Iraq and 1,000,000 during the terrible oil-for-food period. If you've been reading this site, you know what I think about the 100,000 figure. I have my doubts about the million figure as well, but I haven't looked into it. At any rate, he also talked today about how Rumsfeld was arming the Iraqis. The following links should go a long way toward dispelling that myth:
