#1 God bless them and curse the weakass Baathists in Syria who encouraged this. Hopefully Imad Mugniyeh was a beginning, not an end

#2 I remember that incident. There were comments at the time that had the recruits been armed, they might have been able to defend themselves against whichever group had murdered them. That the graves are now being found bespeaks the increased control unified Iraq, supported by the Coalition, has over their own country. May these finds bring peace to those who loved them.
