Buddy is correct, there were over a million people killed during the Iran/Iraq War. We know this because both the Iraqis and Iranians acknowledge the number (and both sides acknowledge that Iraq used Chemical Weapons to stop the Iranians - and Kurds). Of course it's not clear that after the Iran/Iraq war, Saddam's army was "trashed". As the Iraqis re-supplied their armed forces with not just Soviet Arms, but Chinese, South African, and European (Western and Eastern) - I recall before the first Gulf War (1991) Col. Hackworth argued that American Artillery was inferior to Artillery that Iraq had deployed.
