What is Chomsky talking about tens of thousands killed in the Sudan by Clinton's bombing the drug/bio factory?  Amnesty International lists the count as 1 and news reports 11.  Is this to minimize our loss and trivialize it?

A Quick Reaction

By Noam Chomsky

The September 11 attacks were major atrocities. In terms of number of victims
they do not reach the level of many others, for example, Clinton's bombing of
the Sudan with no credible pretext, destroying half its pharmaceutical
supplies and probably killing tens of thousands of people (no one knows,
because the US blocked an inquiry at the UN and no one cares to pursue it).
Not to speak of much worse cases, which easily come to mind. But that this
was a horrendous crime is not in doubt.
