The Iraq govt. that owned up to it did so in 2010. That's a puppet Iraq govt, no?
Be interesting to know when the report originally surfaced. Was it just prior to the first gulf war?
Did you rerad the rest of the article, btw? Halabja was a battle in the Iran-Iraq war, not some isolated incident of genocide like it's portrayed. It says Iraq used mustard gas and Iran more deadly gases. I've read the Iranians and Iraqis were shifting in and out of the town as the battle line shifted, and when the Iranians bombed it, they mistakenly believed the Iraqis were holding it.
