That's a bizarre post you made - you linked war on terror by this thread's title to this pre-war link as if to make it sound like the war on the tyrant was all about getting rid of a tyrant for that purpose- Even more odd is although you want to discredit cnn, the post itself explains why cnn was hiding that info - in order to not jeopordize the lives of informants in Iraq [ie, ending up hacked to pieces and delivered in a bag back to relatives [ I've heard this was not the only case of that type of monstrosity].

It's no secret that atrocities on this large scale was going on, even back in late 80s when Rumsfeld was chumily smiling and shaking hands with saddamned himself. You can bet alot of covering up was going on prior to the war even by the CIA so as not to put the lives of operatives and anti-saddamned opponents working secretively in Iraq at risk. Unfortunately some of these 5th columnists were discovered and brutally slaughtered. And I recall CNN doing a 'special' on saddamned 'before the war' showing his firing squads in action against rebellious generals-down to close-ups of coup-de-grace pistol shots..... crime's not covered up.

And before you throw out the accusation Mr.Rocket, no I'm not a cnn apologist. I haven't even watched cnn for several years [ 5 or 6 ] and I barely watched it back when I did.
