Saddam was given millions, plus arms, by the USA

and the British when he waged a terrible war against Iran, where hundreds of thousands died.

His crime then, he didn't win. So when you back a horse and he fails you claim retribution. The British and the Americans, along with Sad Dan should be in the dock for war crimes against Iran. As Gorbachov said tonight - big mistake - keep out of the middle east. Which of course we don't, because we want their oil. But they will carry on proping up the undemocratic and cruel Saudis - bet your bottom dollar!
