her murder
I've been trying to edit the section on her murder.
Atwar Bahjat was shot in Samara with a single bullet to the head. There are the following photos with her body in her clothing showing her after her death. Note that the article in the Times makes false claims with regards to her death that are verifiable by the photos of her body illustrating that she has neither been stripped nor her head cut off.
The article below in The Times, makes some allegations with regards to her murder that is patently falso (as proven by the images to the contrary), and Atwar Bahjat has spoken out against terrorism in Iraq and her funeral procession was protected by Badr Brigade symphatisers in the Interior Ministry, so the insinuation of her murder at hte hands of Badr Brigades is part of a campaign of false propaganda among the Baathis. The article is below.
