I am a child of the 70s. Which means I remember how the President dealt with Iran after the hostage crisis- he sold them weapons.

But the right wingers are loyal to their party, above everything. We have always been at war with Eastasia.

United States support for Iraq during the Iran–Iraq war.

Starting in 1982 with Iranian success on the battlefield, the United States made its backing of Iraq more pronounced, normalizing relations with the government, supplying it with economic aid, counter-insurgency training, operational intelligence on the battlefield, and weapons.

Then along came Dumya/Darth Vader declaring Iraq a threat to our country....and you know the rest of the story
