My only point is we are not blameless. We did supply things that we shouldn't have and I accept that. But you're right with regard to time frame and relevancy to todays situation

The chemicals that were sent to Iraq in the mid-1980s were sold to Iraq by private U.S. and European companies in their raw form. They were dual use chemicals and agents that Iraq eventually processed and packaged into weapons. That's an interesting characterization of the situation. When reading your version of events, one must keep in mind that we sent Anthrax directly to Saddam's military, while the British intelligence sent scientists to Iraq to help Saddam weaponize these materials. Thus, your post is most useful in revealing your extraordinary dishonesty. Tom
