In a "60 Minutes" Interview on May 12, 1996, Lesley Stahl asked then Secretary of State Albright about US sanctions on Iraq. "We have heard that a half million children have died. I mean, that's more children than died in Hiroshima. And -- and you know, is the price worth it?" Madeleine Albright responded "I think this is a very hard choice, but the price -- we think the price is worth it." On Kosovo, so determined was she that nothing would get in the way of military action that she asked Congress to cancel its March 11 debate on the subject, claiming that it could cause divisions within NATO.
