Chirac as host


:"Observers remarked that when President Jacques Chirac was prime minister 30 years ago, France got a visit from one of the leaders of the Baath military putsch in Iraq. He was entertained by Paris and personally by Chirac, who took him away for the week-end to his country chateau. It was Saddam Hussein. Trade between France and Irak soon blossomed. Even today, France remains Iraq’s best trading partner."

Heck, thirty years ago, Hussein often met with our OWN CIA!!! We helped arm him right along with the French & Russian!
