Glorybee do you not understand? Saddam Hussein was a dictator installed by the West supported by the West and supplied with arms by the West until such time as they decided they didn't like him and then they sent in troops to remove him and invade Iraq. It's not just the sale of arms it is a sustained policy mostly to maintain the supply of oil to the West. Russia doesn't need it and had the sense to stay out of the region after they tried to control Afghanistan. The West can't or won't do the same.
