And stop liying for Iraq, you have shipped thousands of tons of CW for Saddam just before the 1988 attack

You seem to remember how the west backed iraq but forget that te same west was also suppling iran......Iran-contra affair comes to mind. Iran-isreal-US all doing a cosy deal until if came out in the press.

Iran is armed in 1985, 5 years after Iraq. They have the right to do it as Iraq started this.

And don't try to blame Iran because it's you who arm both sides, you've destructed everybody starting everything with your Saddam dog.

It's you who are to blame.

Iraq is armed in 1980 to attack Iran

Going back to the original point about shifting alliances, i think we shall see the US cozy up to iran for a few decades and then drop in favor of the gulf nations.
Its a merry go round.....the gulf nations get a few decades then iran all the way until both sides a fully loaded with western-chinese-russian weapons to destroy each other.
