"the contention [that we provided the building blocks that Saddam used to make his biological weapons program] probably is true. I think it is possible that it can be proven to be true, although I don't think we intended Saddam to convert the technology into bio warfare stuff."

If not for bio warfare, then for what? If it was intended for use against Iran, would that surprise you? Its a known fact we were providing Ben Laden with arms and support in his war with Russia. Typical of the U.S. governments laughably inept attempts to be World Policeman, I would say.

"By 1986, Iraq had proven itself better at the use of chemical weapons than any fighting force in the world," said a former senior U.S. diplomat involved in Iraq. By 1988, Iraq's use of gases had also repeatedly been documented by U.N. specialists. "It was all done with a wink and a nod," said a former U.S. intelligence official. "We knew exactly where this stuff was going, although we bent over backwards to look the other way." Washington knew Iraq was "dumping boatloads" of chemical weapons on Iranian positions, he added.

I didn't see BigTime's last post before posting my followup. Where's the proof beyond reasonable doubt that the bio agents we gave Iraq were intended for use against Iran - I guess that's still the question.
