What We Must Remember
One of my favorite sites is an Italian blog called "I Love America." Almost all of the posts are in Italian, so I can't read a word of it. But last November when they posted "Viva La Re-Election" along with a picture of George W Bush, the message was clear.
In a post the other day they reminded me of something that we must remember. That something is the extent of the horror that we have put an end to in Iraq.
It's called the Iraqi Truth Project, and it is dedicated to remembering the horror of Saddam Hussein's reign of terror. Saddam is responsible for the deaths of at least 1.3 million people.
The Iraqi Truth Project has just released a film documenting the horrors of the Saddam regime and the failures of the United Nations. It's called "WMD: The Murderous Reign of Saddam Hussein." Their website says that much of "the source footage in this documentary will be used as evidence of war crimes committed by Saddam's regime in the upcoming war trial of Ali Hasan al-Majid, "Chemical Ali' and in Saddam Hussein's war trials." As well it should be.
You can see the movie trailer here.
Victor Davis Hanson is one of the advisors to the makers of the film. Actually I'm not quite sure of his status, but he's listed on the website.
So please go to the Iraqi Truth Project website. Be forwarned, some of it is pretty graphic. But that's just what we need to remember.
