Interesting. The article is mysteriously devoid of any US involvement and takes measures to not even mention the name of the United States.
Quote: Iraq started research into the production of chemical weapons agents in the 1970s and started batch production of agents in the early 1980s. At that stage, production was heavily reliant on the import of precursor chemicals from foreign suppliers.
Hmmm...I wonder who these foreign suppliers are? They should be tracked down and put to death.
Quote: In 1982, early in the Iran-Iraq War, the Iraqis used riot control agents to repel Iranian attacks. They progressed to the use of CW agents in mid-1983 with mustard, and in March 1984 with tabun (the first use ever of a nerve agent in war). The Iraqis continued to use chemical weapons until the end of hostilities in August 1988; in addition they introduced the nerve agents sarin and GF late in the war.
Never mind, I see now. It was okay for them to use chemical weapons then, but two decades later they must be brought to justice for NOT using them. I bet the Iraqi people were not suffering back then either.
Quit pushing justifications at me when our hypocrisy clearly shows they have NEVER been legitimate concerns. Our government really didn't care twenty years ago. Our government really didn't care ten years ago. And our government really didn't care now.
