Donald Runsfeld gave weapons of mass destruction to Iraq back in the 1980's to support Iraq and to win the war with Iran.
Iraq never used nukes or biological weapons against Iran (and of course the nuke plant was French built.

And the article itself states that Iraq's chemical weapons were indigenously manufactured. And the foreign involvment in the Iraqi chemical industry was basically German/French/Russian. (and much of that "dual use" technology anyway.)

So actually NOBODY "gave" them WMD to use against Iran, much less the US.

You're asserting that Rumsfeld would visit and bring a briefcase full of mustard gas?

Buckeroo actually stated in a previous post on this thread that Saddam's gassing of over 40 villages was "his business" and basically said who were we to be upset with Saddam since we had Waco on our hands.

One simply cannot reason with such unreasonableness, just as one can't convince the unconvincable.
