Iraqi soldiers unearth mass grave near Baghdad

BAGHDAD - Iraqi soldiers have found 28 bodies in a mass grave near the volatile city of Baquba, where dozens are killed every week in violence, the US military said in a statement on Thursday.

The statement gave no details of how they had died, whether they were all men or included women and children, or whether they were victims of a single incident. snip

The US military said on Wednesday that its forces killed eight insurgents and two women in an early morning ground assault supported by an air strike on a village near Baquba.

Iraqi police said a US-Iraqi force killed eight civilians — a man and his three sons and a neighbouring couple, their son and daughter.

1. Now the Bush trifecta is complete: Rape rooms, torture chamber, mass graves
All done in the name of the people of the United States of America.

History will judge these moments Mr. President.

You are no Teddy Roosevelt, sir.
