Mr. Speaker. the world continues to witness Saddam Husseins annihilation of the Kurdish people. What he has failed to achieve by gassing and bombing. he now tries to accomplish by mass starvation and freezing. No less than 1.000 innocent refugees are dying in the mountains each day. Many. maybe most. of these victims are children under 5 years old. If the new world order means anything. it is that the United States will not stand by while international outlaws commit genocide. After urging the Iraqi people to rise up. our President has finally stood up for them. He is to be congratulated for his decision yesterday to provide greater relief and safety to Kurds in northern Iraq.
