Iranian Gas Attack Victims Vow to Take U.S. to Court

TEHRAN (Reuters) - Iranian victims of chemical attacks said Tuesday they would take the United States to the International Court of Justice in The Hague for supplying the weapons that scarred them, the official IRNA news agency said.
Iran's Society of Victims of Weapons of Mass Destruction demanded compensation from Washington and U.S. firms, saying they supplied poison gases to Saddam Hussein's Iraq during his 1980-1988 war against the Islamic Republic.

The war killed hundreds of thousands on both sides and Iran has thousands of invalids disabled in chemical attacks.

"The U.S. government issued over 780 licenses allowing American companies to export sensitive weapon components," the group said in a letter delivered to the Swiss Embassy, which covers U.S. interests in Tehran.

Him, Saint Ronnie, and Bush I have got blood on their hands...

criminal prosecution for the perpetrators, Rummy chief among them!

right along with a picture of Donny Rumsfeld shaking Husseins hand after he used what he bought.

Yea right.....

RC

Cant remember which one, want to say MSNBC, and all the narrator said was that Rumsfeld "once met with Saddam Hussein". That's it. They shot some hoops or something.

that might get some media attention -- especially were big money at stake.

But it is a pretty hot story. Imagine how it's going to play to millions of Arab satilite viewers. The chimp comes to the rescue of the Mid-east by toppling Saddam (yeah, sure)..... And now the finger is pointed directly @ St. Ronnie for aiding the chimp's "evil-doer" boogy man excuse for OCCUPATION of Arab soil.... Wow chimp, maybe you shouldn't have believed those "smart" guys over @ PNAC! Heaven knows it's not YOUR fault though, chimp. God made you do it, right?
