Similar to the recent 2012? photos of thousands, about 100,000? Syrian corpses of people the Assad government slaughtered, tortured to death and then made photos of every corpse as a record.

The photographer smuggled out thumb drives, he escaped as a refugee and turned the photos in to USA government.

Currently the photos are housed in the National Holocaust museum. Perhaps someday there will be a war crimes trial for Assad and his ally Russia.
