The burial site--a series of deep trenches that held about 2,500 bodies, many of them women and children--is one of many mass graves that dot the country. But it was the first excavated by an American investigative team working with a special Iraqi tribunal to build cases against Mr. Hussein and others in his government." (NEW YORK TIMES) This article discusses how "American legal advisors say the Hatra grave holds a key to what is likely to be one of the broadest charges against Mr. Hussein--that he is responsible for the killing of as many as 100,000 Iraqi Kurds in the late 1980's, some in chemical-weapons attacks."| Item type | Current location | Call number | Status | Date due |
