And yes, the usa govt has always thought wmd's were ok as long as they were in the usa best interest. But you see nothing wrong with that?

Iran, to my knowledge, has never been accused of using gas against the Iraqis by any responsible source. And no, Stinger missles are hardly weapons of mass destruction.
There is a strong possibility that much of the beginings of the Iranian chemical and biological weapons programs took place with the cooperation (or averted eyes) of the U.S. government, however, under Reagan and GHB.
