Humania,
Its unfortunate for the members of society who support the effort to remove
the murderous dictator Saddam Hussain from power that the 200,000 -
1,000,000 people he executed, killed, raped, or tortured were not
videotaped, since apparently it takes a photograph or personalized narrative
for the true impact of the horror of the loss of a life to sink in to some
people. For all the descriptions you post of Iraqi civilian causalties,
there are a thousand stories untold, unphotographed, and unvideotaped from
Saddam's reign of terror. I wonder how the current vote of the MTV
counterculture would have fared had these attrocities been videotaped.
Your postings do nothing to dissuade those who support the ousting of this
murderous dictator, except to remind us of the type of horrors he had
intentionally inflicted upon his own people for the past decades.
