On February 9th, 1994, Senator Riegle delivered a report -commonly known at the Riegle Report- in which it was stated that "pathogenic (meaning 'disease producing'), toxigenic (meaning 'poisonous'), and other biological research materials were exported to Iraq pursuant to application and licensing by the U.S. Department of Commerce." It added: "These exported biological materials were not attenuated or weakened and were capable of reproduction."[30]

Double standard?
Let me see if I understand this correctly... Iran kidnaps 52 US diplomats so Iran is no friend of ours, so when Iraq uses gas against them frankly we don't give a fucking shit. But when Iraq attacks our ally Kuwait, we do give a shit.
I don't see a double standard at all. We don't really care what happens in the Middle East unless one of our allies. Fuck Iran and the horse they rode in on.
