Did we supply him with the gas? Maybe, but we didn't ask him to use it on the kurds that is for sure.

The Kurds aren't nice people either. They're as crazy as damn near every other sect over there. They kill their daughters for disgracing the family and all that shit we hate arab cultures for.
Hard to feel sorry for them.
Politcally, historically, he Kurd fighters were terrorists by standard deifnition. They call themselves 'freedom fighters' and now our govt/media does too.. but that's just what you call terrorists you ally with. The Kurds were rebelling, trying to seperate from Iraq and gain land that they have had no claim to in the last 1000 years.
What did the USA federal government do when some states tried to seperate themselves? What would they do today if some ethnic/religious group tried to carve out their own country within the borders of the USA? America would use all force necessary to put down the rebellion of course.
All of Saddams conventional forces were busy fighting Iran for us, so he used what he had left at his disposal (gas).
