Anfal Judges to Speak at Case Western on January 29, 2008
On June 24, 2007, the Iraqi High Tribunal convicted “Chemical Ali” (Ali Hassan al-Majid) and five other military leaders of Saddam Hussein’s regime of international crimes related to their roles in a three-year crackdown of northern Iraqi Kurds known as the Anfal campaign. The Tribunal’s judgment marks one of the only times in history individuals have been convicted of genocide – the worst crime known to humankind.
The Iraqi High Tribunal and the US Regime Crimes Liaison Office (RCLO) have provided Case Western Reserve University the just-completed English translation of the Anfal Trial Judgment for us to post on our award-winning Grotian Moment Website:
