The airplanes were French (Dassault Mirage, Super Etandard) and Russian (Mig-21, MiG-23 Fishbed, Frogger, MiG-24, some Sukhoi planes, Russian bombers, Mil-Mi 88 Hind helicopters, Russian assault gunships).

The money was Saudi, Kuwaiti, and American.

The tanks/guns Iran used were UK (Chieftan Tank, BRNO LMG), US (Patton Tank, APC, Bazooka, M60 Machine Gun, and Jeeps), German (Heckler & Koch G-3, MG42, MG3, etc., German-made US helmets), Chinese/NK (AK-47 & RPG North Korean used by Baseej and Revolutionary Guards, various Chinese-made Russian LMG's and rifles), Libyan small arms, Israeli (Uzi, some US Parts).

The airplanes Iran used were largely US (F-14 Tomcat, F-4 Phantom, F-5 Tiger, Bell Huey Helicopter, Chinook, Cobra Helicopter, Sea King, various gunships and recon planes, supposedly, Iran had a couple F-16's too from a deal the Shah made), British (Recon planes), Russian (MiG-21's captured in Iraq, MiG-23's captured in Iraq, a few Russian helicopter gunships).

The missiles Iran used were leftover US and Chinese (Silkworm), Russian (Katyusha, SCUD) and a few from North Korea.

There was very little money/loans given to Iran, though the Russians helped a facilitate deals a bit and so did some Western countries *(though nowhere near in comparison to how much they helped Iraq). This drained Iran from obtaining necessary Western parts for their equipment or even from manufacturing their own.

* Keep in mind that after 1979 the only countries doing business with Iran were Syria, Libya, North Korea, and to an extent China. Israel helped Iran with small deals and facilitating the Reagan Iran-Contra scandal where the US delivered some spare F-14 and other airplane & vehicle parts in exchange for hostages. Everyone else had participated in sanctions so Iran's military hardware was dilapidated and needing repair. Iraq on the other hand had very large quantities of weapons and hardware, especially from France and Russia, though their intel came from the US and Russia.

Facts point otherwise:

As for the US? Ronald Reagan and GHWB sold agents including anthrax, VX nerve gas, West Nile fever germs and botulism to Iraq until March 1992.

The German company Karl Kobe sold Iraq the materials and chemicals needed to make mustard gas, Sarin, Tabun, and tear gas.

The UK paid for the Iraqi's plants to make chlorine and mustard gas.

Other countries involved in selling Iraqi chemical and biological weapons are India, France, Singapore, Brazil, Spain and Egypt.

So, what's the deal here Zambino? Go on and shoot me another post, this time call me a *** or something that shows more of your class.

OK, you are a ******

Funny how the ignorant and uneducated Muslims must purchase all their technology from other countries, what a backward bunch.

It's right herein the Reigle Report:

"U.N. inspectors had identified many United States manufactured items that had been exported from the United States to Iraq under licenses issued by the Department of Commerce, and [established] that these items were used to further Iraq's chemical and nuclear weapons development and its missile delivery system development programs. ... The executive branch of our government approved 771 different export licenses for sale of dual-use technology to Iraq. I think that is a devastating record."

Look @ the articles on this page:

Heheh... I love how the ones with paltry arguments call names.

BTW your SIPRI article was from 1984... hahahahahahaha! That was when Saddam's program just kicked itself into swing. Much of the chemical weapons use was throughout the latter half of the war. Vaghaan ahmaghi aghab oftade... lol

Your Reigle Report says the US sold equipment that might have been used to make WMD's, none of the bullshit you've posted proves the US sold poison gas to either side you stupid fuck.

The US didn't sell WMD's to either side.

I said it wasn't made in the USA poison gas that was used, and I stand by my statement.

Kiss your ass goodbye anyway, the clock is ticking for Iran.
