>>justme: You miss both points. The argument was 1.3MM tons >>during 1999 – 2001 versus 1.44MM tons during WWII (European >>Theater).
No Alan, the Iraq number was 1.3 Million POUNDS, not TONS, for 1999-2001. That becomes 642 TON, of which 528 TON was 1999-2000 (Clinton). Just click through the link in your counterpunch.com reference and read the raw data.
I repeat:
Your claim: Clinton dropped more tonnage of bombs on Iraq during 1999-2000 than USAF did on Germany in all of WV2.
My debunk: According to your own chosen sources on this matter, namely counterpunch.com and Wikipedia. the ratio was WW2/Clinton = 1,463,423 / 528 = 2772. So your propaganda is off by a whopping factor of 2772!
