Are you still sure about that?
It's true that the US did supply Saddam Hussein with chemical weapons when he was at war with Iran. Therefore, some of the weapons, or parts of these weapons could have been used against the Kurds.

The US did land troops in northern Iraq when Saddam drove the Kurds out of their villages and into the mountains during the snows of winter. Remember?
Irrelevant.

So, the Americans are playing both sides with arms deals again, like they always have.

Does this make it right?

Not in my opinion.
