Right - Sadaam was America's boy - it supported him and supplied him. In fact if I had the time to pick through your article I could find several instances of US complicite

ROFLMAO!!! Ok Enigma.. Show us where the US supplied Saddam with his AK-47s, T-55/62/72 tanks, French mirages, MIGS, and the 1 million tonnes of Soviet related ordnance we're finding stashed across the country!!

And show us all of those US provided WMD warhead casings that were fired from Soviet rocket launchers, or delivered via those MIGs and Mirages..

If you were in my presence right now, I'd take you over my knee, spank you, and then lock you up for criminal stupidity..

But I'll give you opportunity to attempt to excavate yourself from the void you have created for yourself.

Oh, gawd, will it never end? Somebody else has a more complete version that he/she hauls out whenever someone repeats that old tired chestnut, but here's mine:

FAQ: Who was the major supplier of arms to Iraq?
Table here - #1 Soviet Union, %57 of share; #2 France, %13 of share; # 3 China, %12 of share; # 4 Czech Republic, %7 of share; #6 Brazil, %4 of share; # 7 Egypt, %2 of share; # 8 Romania, %1 of share; # 9 Denmark, %1 of share; # 10 Libya, %1 of share; # 11 USA, %1 of share.
