Russian special forces units were involved.

And this has been discredited.

"And this has been discredited"

That’s the first I’ve heard. Do you have a source?

And this has been discredited.

Since when...this story is only from two months ago:

Russia tied to Iraq's missing arms - Oct 28 2004

Do you have a source saying this is not correct? From my recollection, there were satellite photos and documents showing Saddam paid Russia to protect their weapons. They also supplied missiles, electronic jamming equipment and night vision goggles to Iraq for use in fighting US troops.
