Double standards here, Weltall? You know that they have some US equipment too, from when we funded and armed them when they were fighting Iran... was Sadaam OK to fund back then, because we did in our policy I talked about in length (and no one responded to) before of funding any brutal dictator or terrorist group who claimed to fight communism...
The U.S. did not fund Iraq. We funded Iran. Altough Iran isn't really that much better than Saddam, but the point remains. And anyway we aren't talking about equipment supplied during the Iraq/Iran War we are talking about equipment supplied to Iraq AFTER the Gulf War.
