A two-hour program on C-Span is covering a panel presentation and press briefing on the Lancet report on Iraqi deaths as a result of violence. Drs Roberts and Burnham, the authors of the report, plus Dr Juan Cole, of the U of Michigan History Dept, have made statements and are answering probing questions researched by Kucinich’s staff. Rep Ron Paul (R-TX) is a co-sponsor of the program, but he is not attending, as far as I can tell.
Kudos to Kucinich for his preparation and presentation of this panel…the MSM loves to poke holes in this report.
OTOH, I heard one Iraqi commentator describe the report results as Ba’athist-backed.
