Pleased to hear that you do not seek to excuse Saddam's attack on his neighbour (in this case Iraq). As someone on another thread asked you with regard to Saddam's attack on Kuwait - Do you think that he should be brought to account for for these criminal acts of aggression.

To describe the Iran-Iraq war as a war-by-proxy against Iran by America completely ignores the back-ground to the conflict and the primary reason for American involvement.
