IRAQ-TRIAL-CHEMICALALI-KURDS
A journalist watches the state-run Al-Iraqiya television channel as it airs the taped trial and sentencing of Iraqi Ali Hassan al-Majid as he shouts out, "al-hamdullilah al-hamdullilah" (praise be to God) on January 17, 2010, in Baghdad. Former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein's cousin and notorious henchman Majid known as "Chemical Ali" was sentenced to death by hanging for ordering the gassing of Kurds in the Iraqi town of Halabja in 1988, a brutal attack that killed an estimated 5,000 people.
