I suspect these are Shi'ites murdered after the disastrous 1991 coup attempt. I also suspect they are one of the reasons Saddam was stalling for time. They are in this warehouse being cataloged before they are destroyed, evidence the Allies can show to the world to vindicate this war.
Yet the naysayers will still insist that more time would have been a solution.

I hope the peaceniks now have the good grace to shut the hell up.
And admit they were naive, overtrusting, and...and...well, WRONG.
Not likely.
Being liberal/Democrat means never having to say you're sorry.
They'll move past this and go back to bashing Dubya over the death penalty in Texas...

Now that is INTERESTING! Cause, one of the First Ranked I know here in NJ said you know it was time to 'do something' if you received something in the mail. In other words, mobilize. Carry out an order. I wonder if the something in the mail was a body part.

The LW fruitloops will now say, well, other than the mass executions Saddam is an ok guy and this is an illegal war.

I'm afraid this is probably just the tip of the iceberg......

'That is two countries now that I have seen mass graves,' he added with a shake of his head.
Two countries that tried to follow the lead of Stalin.
Both have done Uncle Joe proud.

Why would they have left these remains in this warehouse for so long?
Why not just dig a huge hole and bury everything?I remember seeing satellite photos of mass graves in Kosovo, and Saddam knows he is being watched from orbit.
Perhaps this is why the bodies were stored, waiting for a road project so the Iraqis could "dig a huge hole" without arousing suspicion. I remember hearing of a medial strip in Baghdad, rumored to be full of the bodies of "subversives".
Stupid, I know---all that oil and no incinerators?

I suspect there will be plenty of nightmares to go around for those who are involved in all aspects of this campaign. God protect them.

This is stuff that you only 'read about' that happened long ago, before I was born, or in books of fiction.My thoughts exactly. What's even more disturbing is that it's not just Iraq where this type of horror occurs. I have heard of the terrible cruelty in North Korea and China, for instance, that is going on even now.

You fellows speak the truth. There are important elements in American life who are sincerely and tenaciously evil. They have huge and deluded followings. We must keep in mind that the Devil protects his own and then deal with these people.

Actually, I think all the peacenicks should have to look at this disgraceful display of evil incarnate - in living color - and they should be told - THIS IS WHAT YOU SUPPORTED - THIS IS WHAT YOU THOUGHT WAS GOOD!!

You must be mistaken. Mass graves were not found in Kosovo. Clinton said they were there.... reason enough to doubt it. Searches for the hundreds of thousands of bodies lost to the "genocide" turned up less than 500, and many of them were Serbian - not Albanian. Many of the "ethnic Albanians" (Muslims) who were reported to be dead to the world press by their relatives are still alive today. However, 100% of the people killed by NATO's bombs remain dead.

but the united nations did not wanted to help president bush,in fact they oppose the war,france,russia,germany,also mandela!,did he knew??,
every day that passes reinforse that president bush was right all along to stop this evil man.
To: ZOOKER
My husband had a muslim friend who died. The man's family told my husband that it was important for muslims to be buried within 24 hrs of their death.
Storing these poor dead souls and denying their families the dignity of a proper burial for their loved ones is just another cruel chapter in this sick and horrible act.
I hope they kept records of the executioners so they can be tracked down and tried as war criminals

Excellent reportage. Unfortunately the images of these atrocities are not getting much play here in the states. I do wish that they will.
