On that note, some of you may find the DVD I just viewed (rented from
Netflix.com) enlightening. The DVD is entitled "Uncle Saddam"; and I
believe it was made in 2002. As a warning, it includes some photos of
persons tortured to death as well as gassed to death. The DVD gives a
chronological run-down of Saddam's life, regime, and his key players'
deeds/lives, relatives deeds/lives. I would recommend it.
