Saddam "gassed his own people", you say.
Putin did that too, you know...

I wonder how people like Rumsfeld find the nerve to say that, since they are the ones who sold him the actual weapons...

Ramo, you raise a good point. I think the difference is killing civilians with WoMD vs. killing soldiers.

I think Saddam was able to hold off the Iranians because he used WoMD on them. It is interesting, though, that he never loaded his SCUDS with gas or bio when he landed them on Teheran.

Why?
IIUC, its not clear that he had the technical ability to launch a SCUD with a chemical warhead at the time. Teh attacks on the front and Halbja used aircraft and conventional artillery (firing chem shells) , not SCUDS.
