Somehow, this fact seems relevant…

And… guess who helped who gas people… in the 1980’s…

We did.

According to recently declassified CIA documents and interviews with former intelligence officials, the U.S. government had evidence that Iraq was using chemical weapons in 1983, but concealed those facts as Iran tried to prove that to the United Nations. Even worse, toward the end of the war, the U.S. shared information with Iraq about Iran’s military position that it knew was likely to lead to a chemical attack.

Thanks, Ronald Reagan
