US complicity with Saddam: [VIDEO]

Morning everyone,

Can I very very strongly recommend that you watch this couple of short videos here

Its a documentary that Barry Lando, along with French journalist Michel Despratx, produced for Canal + in France, and has been broadcast in much of the world, but never in the United States. It details Western--and particularly U.S.-- complicity with the crimes of Saddam Hussein--such as his use of chemical weapons first against Iranian troops, then against his own Iraqi Kurds. Back then, of course, the U.S. was backing Saddam, their de facto ally, against Khomeini.

Isn't it convenient that he can now never give evidence at a trial?

Watch it, share it.
