We didn't say one hundred thousand Iraqi soldiers were buried alive. We said one hundred thousand Iraqi soldiers were unaccounted for. This came from simple math applied to statements in pentagon press conferences. They gave numbers of enemy soldiers and later gave numbers of prisoners. When asked what happened to the others, they evaded the question numerous times.

As to the burying alive, there have been numerous eye witness accounts which are only now coming out. Step one was to close the trenches with an armored bull dozer and step two was to go over the area with a grader smoothing it out and cutting off anything sticking up like weapons and limbs and leaving no trace. We don't know how many Iraqi's lost their lives that way but the fact that they dug no trenches this time is pretty telling.
