All said and done..........the Arab countries very well knew that this tyrant Saddam had specifically targeted Shias in the South of Iraq.Numerous articles appeared in the 1980-1988 where one after the other Shia population was uprooted.Where were these Arab spokesmen at that time?Why didn't they even point out to Saddam and his cronies that targeting one particular sect was not appropriate?Why?Simply because they did not realise at that time that it was important nor necessary.Iran was exhausted in its war with Iraq and these same Arab leaders ignored the massacre of Shias.Today, when the tide has turned,there mere mentioning of the names of religious personalities who were killed by this brutal Saddam becomes a topic in the eyes of these same Arab leaders. The Iraqi Govt should ignore this happening and continue with the restoration of settling Shias-Sunnis and the Kurdish the way they lived in the past and the only way to deal with this issue would be to seek assistance from Ayatollah Shistani and the representatives of local tribal heads rather than to expect any good from these so-called Sunni representatives who are persuing agenda given to them by foreign Arab leaders who are worried more about themselves than what happens in Iraq.

Whatever has happened has happened. Why keep him alive by daily pinch about him. Let him lie rolling in his grave (hope they have made it 12 feet deep).
