Examiner.com: Hussein reign of terror is subject of grisly “Red Museum”

SaddamStatueWriting at Examiner.com on Tuesday, Unequal Time’s Bryan Myrick urges readers to consider reacquiring ownership of the real reason for the War in Iraq after reading an article describing ‘exhibits’ at a museum in the Kurdish north that offers visitors a window into the sadistic and evil regime of the Hussein regime. 

Here’s an excerpt from the Examiner.com article:

Although polite conversation now dictates that deference to the left on the issue of whether the War in Iraq was justified is obligatory.  Drowned out by Pavlovian slogan-chanting of “Bush Lied: They Died,” and the reality that President George W. Bush’s post-invasion strategy was a mitigated disaster, proponents of the war have retreated in apparent shame.  They should remind themselves of the horrors that were abated by the Allied invasion, hold their heads high, and remind the mob of the good that our presence there accomplished.

The reason that American lives have been laid down for a just cause in Iraq is made clear in a gut-wrenching dispatch by Jerry Weinberger, a professor of political science at Michigan State University, in his third installment of an “Iraq Journal.” Weinberger wrote recently about his visit to the “Red Museum” in Sulaimani, a town in the Kurdish north.  The account is a vivid telling of photographic evidence and artifacts of the brutal and genocidal campaign of the Hussein regime, acts of atrocity that were committed in the very building in which the museum is situated.
