Contrary to what *some people* seem to think, the US did NOT give Saddam his chemical weapons.
- German companies build a couple of chemical weapon factories in Iraq, which allowed Saddam to make these himself (and boy, did he make them...).
- French companies build a nuclear plant in Iraq, which was bombed into oblivion by the Israelis.
- The US gave Saddam some samples of biological agents, but that's it.
- France and Russia supplied most of Saddam's weapons.
Just because everyone you know says something doesn't mean it's true, you know...
