I was doing some searches for what exactly saddam did to the kurds at the end of world war and came across this article :mad: Stupid USA, they are just as heartless as Saddam. They had surrounded troops running away from warfield and killed them mercilessly . The road has since been called the highway of death

WARNING: very very very graphic images.

Wonder if there will be a time when they are ever tried and justice is rendered to the millions of people whom they have killed. What the fcuk is the United nations doing. Stupid UN. :mad:

What? You mean the USA killed soldiers that had just attacked and taken over a soveriegn nation?

Oh The horror...
It's a war...Iraq started it, get over it. If the soldiers wanted to surrender they know the way to do it.

How about when saddam decided to gas the Kurds?

I dont mind if this attack took place in the battlefield. The iraqi soldiers where fleeing. The US had given the iraqis 24 hours to leave kuwait and these guys were running back to iraq defeated. And all of a sudden it seems the allied forces blocked them in a open highway and attacked the vehicles in the front and back. Created a traffic jam and pounded everyone in between. Killing 1000's. It is no better than what saddam did. !!

All I am saying is it is bad >:(

Where have you been for the last 15 years? Details of the attacks on the retreating Iraqi army on the road to Basra haven't been hidden from any news agency that I know.

When an army is on the retreat the last thing the other army should do is hold back until they surrender. Try googling Falaise Gap to learn how the Allies failed to fully defeat the retreating Germans in Normandy.

Soldiers are still soldiers untill they decide to lay down their arms, and surrender. You honestly think the allies would of bombed them if they were in a line with a white flag?

Theres a VERY fine line between retreating and regrouping.
