Anfal genocide was a campaign against the Kurds in 1980s. It was aimed at the elimination of the Kurds in Iraq, by destroying and burning Kurdish villages down. Killing and burying alive the people of these villages. It costed over 200,000 lives of innocent Kurds.
A group of experts from ministry of Anfaled and Martyrs are to excavate these graves soon. The graves hold remnants of 272 children and the oldest one among them is a 16 year old girl. A pregnant woman is also among them, added Amin.

It's news like this which should remind us that, regardless of recriminations in the U.S. political debate about how Saddam's ouster was managed, the righteousness of the cause is a far different matter.
Genocide is customary in that part of the world, it seems. Just what is is about the Moose?

It “costed”? LOL...What is “anfal”?
More mass graves in Iraq with children?
Priorities....the hot topic is the killer whale story....
Yes, the entire article is written strangely..I think it was translated this way.
The MSM cannot report any bad news about their guy Saddam!

My thinking exactly...Well I guess animals are more important than children (tongue-in-cheek).
Really pathetic era for journalism.
The Anfal province.
Anfal was the horrific massacre of Iraqui Kurds by Saddam Hussain using WMD. Go do some reasearch on it, the pictures will gag you. Read some of the survivors stories.
ObamaCare = genocide of the elderly. So remember most all become elderly.
These pictures should be shown on TV and newspapers, sort a like the soldiers caskets coming back fro Iraq.
We’ll do our patriotic part here to let as many see
what really happens when you have DICTATORS.
That’s an interesting site.
And if Obama was in charge in the past, Saddam would still be in power.
Ron Paul would just shrug this off, as would Beck.
That some were willing to look away at the atrocities committed by Saddam Hussein is a stain on their souls.
Our media did their best to hide it, to keep the US from knowing what really happened. They couldn't let it be known or shown because if they did, people would understand that America was not the bad guy in this and that doesn't suit the MSM.
Fur Shur the publisher of the New York Times loves his baby girls roasted and toasted ~ and that’s no bull.
