"...Proof:
UN clears Iran nuclear facility...."

Is that the same UN that got rich on kickbacks from Saddam Hussein
while
closing their eyes to his starving to death Iraqi children during

the
1990s?

Oh, so the starving of IRaqi children was the UNs' fault and not the
fault of the USA??

False dilemma.

Blame the responsible party; Saddam Hussein and his cronies.


Anything but to blame the USA right?

Who backed and supported Saddam?


Do your homework. (It's really easy; after all, you have a computer at
hand.)

- Russia, first and foremost, gauged by their sales of tanks, aircraft,
artillery, smallarms, and ammunition for all of the above. (Unless you
can show that MiG, Sukhoi, Mil, and Kamov are American companies...)

- To a lesser degree, France, with some Dassault fighterbombers and
some army kit. France worked on their telecomm systems, too.


Don't forget that Iraq's nuclear facilities (promptly destroyed by Israel),
were built by France. In fact, Jaques Chirac personally hosted Saddam in
France, brokered the deal himself, then toured the facilites with Saddam
when they were completed.

If you ask me, Israel picked the wrong day to bomb.


Down in the noise level: Germany, U.S., Britain, and a few other
countries sold them gear up through the mid-80s. Take a look at the
composition of the Iraqi military forces up until Desert Storm.

No, Saddam & Cie. are fully to blame for diverting billions of dollars
in funds specifically meant for food and medical material for Iraqi
people to building more and more palaces for himself and his pals.

Some people, including U.N. personnel benefitted from his largesse at
the same time.
