"Correct me if I'm wrong, but I also recall that a big chunk of the insurgents' weapons - RPGs, etc - are Russian made, and that Russia was one of Saddam's major arms suppliers."

Russia was one of Saddam's major arms suppliers but I doubt they sold "insurgents" any weapon.

I'm not saying that Russia directly supplied the insurgents, only that many of the weapons that fell into the insurgents hands were originally supplied to Saddam by Russia.
