Saw this, I hate stories like this which we "possibly" might have done back in the 1980s, though this article is from 2013, the history pertains to today as well:
Foreign Policy Mag
So, this was revealed through declassified CIA documents, like those that are being released about JFK, seems nothing has come of those. Disturbing, even if one wants to make Iran to be a monster. The whole story could be more complicated.
Which, has been my "be careful what you wish for" point all along.
Iran overthrew the Shah.
Iran Iraq war happens, and we want Iraq to defeat Iran.
Iraq launches chemical weapons against Iran.
Chemical weapons supplied by who? ( take a wild guess).
Iraq gasses its own people. (Wasn't supposed to happen).
USA attacks Iraq.
USA does it again after 9/11, claiming Iraq has Chemical weapons (Gee, I wonder where they came from?).
Inspectors search Iraq for chemical weapons.
Inspectors cannot find them.
Reports are, they were moved the Syria.
USA has been launching attacks against Syria, since the Obama administration, and are continuing it today.
