Oh, I just remembered those MK-84's that were US built and sold to Saudi Arabia and then the Dod leaned on the Saudis to "share" them with the Iraqis... remember them, pdq... Or do you remember that we had Dod folks in Iraq providing intellegence and actually directing the Iraqi Air Force's daily bombing of Iranian targets???

I mean, lets get real here... The US didn't want Iran to win... They perhaps were willing to accept a draw but they weren't gonna let Iran win that war...
