Western sanctions were killing more elementary school children than that yearly

I'm not saying it's not true, but do you have a source for this?

    Nope. That's why I phrased it as an argument that can be made, not an established fact. That said, the impact of US sanctions on Iranian healthcare is well documented (1 2 3), and that's before getting to knock-on effects from general increased poverty, so I'd be very surprised if this was not the case.
