Kurds accuse Saddam of slaughtering families |

![]() A Kurdish woman spoke softly from behind a curtain to protect her identity in a country still wracked by murders and political violence, three-and-a-half years after Saddam was overthrown by a US-led invasion. Haltingly, she told of how Iraqi forces attacked her village in northern Kurdish region in April 1988 and rounded up members of her family. |

#1 The former strongman and six of his top officials are accused of ordering the 1988 Anfal campaign by Iraqi forces in which, prosecutors say, 182,000 Kurds were killed in death camps, bombings and poison gas attacks. That would get you at least 5 years in prison in the UK. |
