This BBC report on a mass grave in Iraq is very much worth reading even though it reports on something horrible. "The skeletons of unborn babies and toddlers clutching toys are being unearthed, the investigators said." And: "One trench contains only women and children while another contains only men.

The body of one woman was found still clutching a baby. The infant had been shot in the back of the head and the woman in the face." There is more.
