During the Reagan years, we didn't want Iran or Iraq winning the war between them. It wouldn't surprise me if we gave them enough intel or other minimal means of support to keep the balance. Keeping two destructive regimes busy, read that too busy to target others, is not such a bad idea.
Look what happened when Hussein was freed up after that war.

Reagan was a loser when it came to terror and he continued the ultimately failed policy of propping up dictators in the region.
Reagan's record against the Islamic tide of terror was nothing less than abysmal.
