The US was aiding the Iraqis while Israel was aiding the Iranians.

So the Israeli's were supplying the Iranians with the f-4 Phantoms ...hmmm , OK that might do...

Yet where did we get all those ---->Mig 23's and Mig 21's to supply the Iraqi airforce with? To attack the Iranian bases ?

And by the end of 1982, Iraq had been resupplied with new Soviet materiel when ground war entered a new phase. Iraq threw newly acquired T-55 tanks and T-62 tanks, BM-21 Stalin Organ rocket launchers, and Mi-24 helicopter gunships into the frey ...etc etc ..

We're (the US) unbelievably clever aren't we to have supplied all that Soviet material to Iraq don't you think so --->?

Do you rewrite history in your head , always this inaccurately ? Do you dream this stuff up , or does it
just dribble off your chin all by itself?

;-)

(more irony, hope you don't get upset)

well mon ami ?

You still wish to hold to the idea that a Soviet supplied Iraq was being aided during that Iraq/Iran war by the US?

You give the Western powers too little credit. The US was aiding the Iraqis while Israel was aiding the Iranians. We let the Iran-Iraq war go on far longer than necessary. So do not deny yourself partial credit of the million deaths.
