I guess you missed the news about these sites and what they stood for including the trial where Saddam was executed for precisely this reason.
Your answer implies that the Saddam was tried and executed for these hundreds of thousands buried in the mass graves.
That is absolutely false.
Since you are apparently ignorant of the facts, I'll give you the answer. It was precisely 148. |
Let me be sure I understand your "dubious" argument: because Saddam was only tried for the murders of 148, the other "killing" fields I refer to are just what OC attempted to suggest, just a normal traditional burial?
I want to be sure this is the argument you are attempting to make here in your ludicrous condescending remarks.
My answer did not imply that Saddam was tried and executed for the thousands buried in mass graves; my answer was that these graves were indeed his handiwork contrary to the absurd apologist remarks that they were "normal" burials.
Why would anyone care what he was tried and executed for except perhaps the extremist apologists for his atrocities, those same apologists for despots who want to portray Bush and this administration as being worse?
What deeply uninformed and ignorant existence does one need to wallow in to come with such abject nonsense is what I have to ask?
I guess the holocaust never happened either.
Here's a few of the atrocities he wasn't convicted of that apparently do not exist in your warped world of denial:

Kurdish officials say they have found a series of mostly unmarked graves that contain about 2,000 bodies outside the northern Iraqi city of Kirkuk.
They say the area was used by the Iraqi army to bury Kurds they killed in the late 1980s.
During that period at least 100,000 Kurds were killed in Saddam Hussein's policy of ethnic cleansing in Iraq.

Yes of course, these are just NECON subsidiaries of Fox News trying to impugn the good nature of Saddam and his two sons along with the other BUTCHERS of his cabinet.
Good lord, you have to wonder what the state of education in the world is to see such ignorance professed on the internet.
