Fined for taking medicine Original Source Link: (May no longer be active)    BERT SACKS, bert@connectexpress.com, http://www.endiraqsanctions.org BERT SACKS, bert@connectexpress.com, http://www.endiraqsanctions.org Sacks was fined $10,000 last year by the U.S. government after he took medicines to Iraq. He said today: "Yesterday, standing next to President Bush, Prime Minister Tony Blair said that 'Over the past five years, 400,000 Iraqi children under the age of five died of malnutrition and disease ... because of the nature of the regime under which they are living. Now, that is why we're acting.' Well, that's certainly why I was acting. I took medicine to children in Iraq and I was fined $10,000 for admitting this. The regime that caused the preventable death of these children is the regime of sanctions pushed by the U.S. and the U.K."
