Cheers,
They're no longer available on-line in free pdf, but they are still readable on-line, or you can order hard copies:

HRW, Jul 93: Genocide in Iraq - The Anfal Campaign Against the Kurds

HRW, Dec 92: The Destruction of Koreme During The Anfal Campaign

I was able to visit Koreme during OPC, and had the opportunity to sit down and speak with some of the survivors from '88. It was a sobering experience.

Joe - would you have happened to be with the DART team during the time frame you mentioned?
