National Geographic Channel is airing Inside Saddam’s Reign of Terror tonight at 9 PM Central.
For 24 years, Saddam Hussein and his Baath Party executed political rivals, Shias, Kurds and anyone else who dared disagree – or even tell a joke about the dictator. A chorus of testimonials, unearthed mass graves and discovered documents now reveal theextent to which Saddam and his Baath Party tortured, maimed, raped and murdered Iraqi citizens. As he faces trial for his crimes, NGC goes inside his reign of terror – with rare videotape that shows Baath Party members carrying out Saddam’s brutal laws.
This is an amazing documentary that tells of the evils of Saddam’s brutal regime. Yunis Haji is one Iraqi who lived to tell about the nightmare of being buried alive in one of Saddam’s mass grave. One mass grave that was inspected had 3,000 Shia bodies. Unbelievable!
If we had a more responsible media here in America we would know these stories.
How sad.
