Iraqi Music Video Propaganda
from the Iran-Iraq War
video archived at
http://radio.indymedia.org/uploads/iraq-milpropaganda-i...r.avi (10megs/.avi)
video from
http://www.newiraqis.com/videos.php

redjade note: Interesting thing about this video is that it shows Iraqi MiGs bombing what would have had to have been Iranian warplanes made in America. The targeting information for bombing runs and missile attacks on Iran was what - it has since been reported - Rumsfeld negotiated in his famous (or not famous enough) meeting with Saddam in 1983.

In essence, this Saddam era music video is about using American and Soviet technology to destroy American and Soviet technology.

Somebody got rich off that deal. But only one empire survived that era.
