Whose butt did you pull that number from?! Iraq killed Iranians during the war. And vice-versa. Btw, recall who was Saddam's principal ally during those days? Reagan, Rummy and the rest of their gang.

You are a liar. Or an idiot. Take your pick! "The Iran-Iraq War lasted just short of eight years and resulted in catastrophic destruction in both countries. Because both Iran and Iraq used irregular military units, attacked civilian populations, and played down their own losses while playing up those of their opponents, reliable casualty figures do not exist. For example, Iran claimed to have lost 200,000 or fewer of its own citizens, while Iraq claimed to have killed 800,000 Iranians. Neutral estimates come closer to the Iranian claim."
