Saddam's Mass Grave in Karbala
Just another reminder of Saddam's hideous reign of terror for those wayleftward leaners who only begrudgingly - and only in cursory attempts to blunt their anti-liberation rhetoric - acknowledge him rather antiseptically as a "bad guy":
Municipal employees working on a sewage project in the Shiite holy city of Karbala found skeletal remains believed to be from a mass grave dating to 1991.
Officials said the grave may contain over 100 victims, including women and children, of a brutal crackdown by Saddam Hussein's regime following a Shiite uprising in the south after Desert Storm.
The slaying of 100 of his own people may seem like a mere drop in the bucket compared to Saddam's body of work, but bear in mind that this grave alone holds more victims than were claimed by Jeffrey Dahmer, John Wayne Gacey, Jack the Ripper, and the Beltway snipers combined.

Yes, it is amazing how the left continues to say there was no justification for war. Just look at all the atrocities Saddam committed against Shiites in Iraq.Posted by: Tom | Dec 27, 2005 9:30:25 PM
Check out a funny site dedicated to the absurdity and satire nature of saying: "It's All George Bush's Fault!" http://www.itsallgeorgebushsfault.com http://www.iagbf.com (for short) Regards, Notta LibbPosted by: Notta Libb | Dec 28, 2005 10:55:45 AM
Tom, agree or disagree with the war, you cannot chalk this up as "justification". "Justification" must be presented beforehand, not after.Posted by: Nor | Dec 28, 2005 3:32:17 PM
