The Kurds in Turkey are menanced by the Turks! * Yet we have not
invaded!

The Turks have not dropped poison gas on them either...

You don't think they have bombed villages;

In Turkey?

I don't know but I doubt it.

*by the way we gave those
poison gases to Saddam!

The policy of the U.S. lasted until just before the attack on Kuwait
The Washington Post writes: 'Declassified documents show that Rumsfeld
traveled to Baghdad at a time when Iraq was using chemical weapons on
an "almost daily" basis in defiance of international conventions.'

In fact they seem to have made a single large attack.

By the end of the decade, Washington had authorised the
sale to Iraq of numerous items that had both military and civilian
applications. These included poisonous chemicals and biological
viruses, among them anthrax and bubonic plague.'

Absolute and utter ********.

This nonsense is just made up rubbish.

Anthrax
'A 1994 investigation by the Senate Banking Committee disclosed that
dozens of biological agents were shipped to Iraq in the mid-1980s
under license from the U.S. Commerce Department, including strains of
anthrax. Anthrax has been identified by the Pentagon as a key
component of Saddam’s biological weapons program.'

He never had one.

Your sources are bull****.
