Do you have any proof of a US transaction of WMD to Iraq ?
A simple link or something.. I am not saying I don't believe you.. but the only place I ever hear about it is on message boards

US companies sold the basic ingredients for chemical weapons to Iraq. So, the US government did not provide Iraq with chemical weapons. However, the US did allow the basic ingredients for WMD to be sold to Iraq (even after Iraq had used chemical weapons) knowing what they would be used for.
It is speculated that the US government also gave information on how to develop WMD, but that's exactly what it is - speculation.
I don't really feel like looking up the information on it again, but these are the facts, which you will find if you look it up yourself (probably a good idea).
