Iran developes 2000 lbs bomb

I have been following this discussion and the main event that the US governemnt put up was the use of CW in Halabja. In 1988, the US/CIA was blaming iran for the use of chemicals weapons on the kurds (who they were helping). But when the case to go to war on iraq was declared in '91, there position changed and it was now iraq which used the chemical weapons

Apart from Halabja, there are unconfirmed and insignificant claims

www.cia.gov...

true, the idea that iran gassed the kurds is absurd considering the kurds were allied with iran.

i think the reason why saddam gassed them was due to the kurds helping iran during the war and preventing an iraqi victory. i have to check up on that some other time.

again rogue1, you have failed to post an article proving that iran used cw and yet you claim that i have no idea what i am talking about?

Use google, it's simple type in a few words and it searches for you. You will find plenty of articles. Don't be so lazy.

As an Australian-Iranian your comments annoyed me, because even the slightest bit of research will show that the UN never found Iran using chemical weapons. This was because the army was under strict orders from Khomeini that the use of chemical weapons is against Islamic laws. But then again, if you can't back up a word you say, then please don't say them. (Don’t say do a google search, I bothered to find the exact text of the UN accusing Iraq of using chemical weapons, you do the same about Iran).
