Description and Table of Contents
Description
This is an examination of one Kurdish village, Koreme, which was decimated at the hand of Iraqi soldiers. The soldiers acted under the orders of Saddam Hussein, using the Koranic verse "Anfal" (the plunder of the infidel) as his justification. This is just one example of many such atrocities.
