Iraq: busload of corpses discovered

Saddam would have turned the whole region into hell


Sept. 21. (Guardian News Service):The remains of an entire busload of people, including women and children, have been discovered near Hilla, Iraq's interim prime minister, Ayad Allawi, claimed yesterday
The interim government was continuing to uncover many atrocities committed during Saddam Hussein's rule, he told editors in London. ``We underestimated the scale of what happened in Iraq at that time," he said. ``So far we have discovered 262 mass graves, with tens of thousands of people. It's unbelievably shocking - truckloads, busloads of people buried."
There had been a recent discovery of a busload of people buried alive at Hilla, an hour's drive south of Baghdad. ``Men, women and children – they were still sitting in their seats," he said. Innocent people who rejected Saddam and his rule."
