Iraqis Find Graves Thought to Hold Hussein's Victims

Apr 14, 2005 1:35PM PDT

AGHDAD, Iraq, April 14 - Investigators have discovered several mass graves in southern Iraq that are believed to contain the bodies of people killed by Saddam Hussein's government, including one estimated to hold 5,000 bodies, Iraqi officials say.

The graves, discovered over the past three months, have not yet been dug up because of the risks posed by the continuing insurgency and the lack of qualified forensic workers, said Bakhtiar Amin, Iraq's interim human rights minister. But initial excavations have substantiated the accounts of witnesses to a number of massacres. If the estimated body counts prove correct, the new graves would be among the largest in the grim tally of mass killings that have gradually come to light since the fall of Mr. Hussein's government two years ago. At least 290 grave sites containing the remains of some 300,000 people have been found since the American invasion two years ago, Iraqi officials say.

What Mark said was:

1. I don't know of any reasonable person who doesn't believe that Saddam murdered thousands of innocent people, or that mass graves exist.

2. I also don't know of any reasonable person who believes that Saddam is a nice man.

Those words (just like most of Mark's posts lately) are nothing more than taunts. I don't bother with him anymore because he's incapable of responding to any of my posts with anything other than insults and taunts. There's no point trying to hold an intelligent discussion with him.

Dan asked him to back those statements up. It would be nice to see Mark do that, even once. But I don't expect it and have learned my lesson about asking for it. I've already been called anti-American for asking Glenda to back up an accusation with some proof.

And your "Dan = Blake" comment is also a taunt, Toni.

Please produce for us a link that supports your accusation that I ever said anything in support of Saddam. Please. The forum would love for you to take a little responsibility for your accusations.

Please read the posts, Mark.

Your initial post had an accusation leveled at the forum in general. I asked you to specify your target and support your accusation. To date you never have.

That's what's going on in this subthead.

You made an unsupported, unsupportable, attack on unnamed member/s of the forum.

I asked you to support your statement and you have not.

And here we are.
