ed, what kind of stupid questions are these? Are you seriously questioning the existence of the mass graves? They are well documented and they find new ones all the time.

Where does PBS get Iraqis saying it was better under Saddam? Easy, they ask people who have just had loved ones shot or blown up. Or Sunnis. When pollsters ask the whole country, they get a different answer. This was the answer of John Burns of the NYT, btw. Catch his latest Charlie Rose interview if you can.

As for not trying Saddam for all 300,000, that was the Iraqis' decision. They went for smaller and quicker.

I wonder when you decided that the people killing in Iraq are Sunni insurgents rather than foreign fighters?

Now you are really being silly. I never said that Sunni insurgents weren't killing people; I only repeated what the US army says, that the vast majority of the suicide bombers who do a disproportianate amount of the killing, esp. of civilians, are foreign jihadis.

Geez Ed.. maybe you need to get out of that canyon buddy...

It would appear that you've isolated yourself from the reality occurring all around you for too long.

Geezus weeps.. Iraqis were "better off" under Saddam?? That's just insane..
