Victor Ostrovsky, a former Senior Mossad* Case Officer admits that Israel worked behind the scenes to ensure that Iraqis killed Iranians and that the Iraq/Iran war dragged on for as long as possible. Over 1,000,000 men, women and children died after Saddam Hussein attempted to annex South-Western Iran in the 1980s in a war that dragged on for over 8 years. The war included the use of chemical weapons by Saddam Hussein (then a U.S. ally) against civilian Iranian populations and Iraqi-Kurds. * Mossad is Israel’s spy agency.
