With a MILLION people dead, how could the small nation of Iraq not know. My guess is that the person in the article chose not to know; just like 50% of Americans chose not to know that Clinton and Gore were frauds. I was wondering this too since some of the embedded reporters were saying that it seemed every family had a member who was killed or vanished. Maybe it depends on what part of the country or society your talking to.

And whether you're a Sunni or a Kurd or a Shi'ite. Big difference in your perspective. Like the difference between being a German or a Jew in WW2 Germany. Plus, if you have propaganda shoved in your face, 24/7, for 30 years, and NO outside information that contradicts that propaganda, you have no reason to believe anything different.
The earth was flat for a long time, despite scientific proof and eye witnesses to the fact that it was round. Many people would refuse to believe something as silly as a round earth, after all, everyone knows it is flat.
All Iraqi Sunnis know that Saddam was a good man, right?
