Iran is Suing the US for Supporting Hussein in the 80s

According to the German paper Der Spiegel, Iran is suing the US in the International Court of Justice at The Hague for its previous support of Iraq. The translation of the story notes that "Iranian representatives accuse the USA of having provided Iraq with raw materials for chemical and biological weapons at the end of the 80's. The US government had delivered dangerous chemicals and deadly viruses to the Iraqi government for its war."

It's quite ironic that this is going on at the same time the US is trying to ram through a UN-approved war on Iraq.
