The Iraqi air force had Migs and mirages, they used french and Russian missles. SCUDS were a rework of a Russian missle. The Iraqi nuclear power plant that was destroyed in 1980 was built by the French, using French and Russian nuclear technicians. How can people continue to say we armed Saddam? We did want them to smack down the Iranians, but we did not arm them.
