<br/><br/> "When Saddam Hussein's men came for them, Omar Osman Siddiq and his family went quietly....The family's deportation in July [2002] followed their rejection of Decree 199, a presidential order issued by Mr. Hussein to reinforce a population policy that is Iraq's equivalent of ethnic cleansing." (NEW YORK TIMES) This article details Iraq's policy of trying to drive out ethnic minorities from a northern part of the country rich in oil reserves and the use of a nationality correction policy giving "Kurds and other minorities the chance to avow that they 'mistakenly' registered themselves as non-Arabs and that they wish to reclaim their Arab origins.".
