Iraq invades Iran beginning a war that would last for 10 years killing over 1,000,000 people. The USA opposes United
Nations condemnation of the invasion and removes Iraq from its list of "nations supporting terrorism".
Iraq is financed by Saudi Arabia and armed by the UK and USA. Ten years later these weapons would be turned
towards these supporters.
The USA also sent arms to Iran secretly via Israel; both countries hoping a military coup would
take place.
