There is no question that the US, among some other countries, sold Iraq both the material and the know how necessary for its chemical and biological warfare programs.

Phrased that way I have no problem with what you're saying. Yes we did and that was a big mistake. I just don't like the jump to the claim that we gave Saddam chemical weapons. We don't even deploy chemical weapons ourselves.

As to where else biological materials might have been transferred to, I wouldn't know. But I did note the on the ATCC site that Cobaltblue posted on another thread that several countries were listed. I recall Taiwan off the top of my head.

It is just very annoying to hear this denial all the time - no we never helped him, etc. Especially annoying when coupled with the holier-thanb-thou attitude of your administration - we are good, they are evil,

And its annoying to me to hear our involvment with Saddam grossly misrepresented and exaggerated.
