Scholarship: "Ghosts of Halabja Saddam Hussein and the Kurdish Genocide"

"Ghosts of Halabja Saddam Hussein and the Kurdish Genocide" by Michael J. Kelly (Creighton). This book argues that Saddam Hussein's execution for his crimes against Iraq's Shi'a freed him from similar charges against him by the Kurds. The atrocities visited by Saddam upon the Kurds of Iraq are explored here together with the trials of Saddam by the Iraqi High Tribunal -- both the completed prosecution for the Dujail massacre against the Shi'ites and the incomplete one for the Anfal Campaigns against the Kurds.
