Typo,,Iraq. As far as i know Irans only involvment in Gulf war I was those iraqi jets that fled to iran and were impounded. Might be one or two other small squabbles,, but they were mostly freaked that maybe they were next. I think they even kept the planes to this day.

But anyway, Our men and women POWs were trying to sue Iraq based on extreme torture, He found no such right existed. (unless you are al queda and want to sue the USA,,he found that right easily)

Interesting concept, “you can’t sue Iraq, because that was a different regime”.But all those financial contracts of Saddams government??? Buying things from all over the world,,why, those can be enforced just fine! Its still the same country then!

Roberts is a Harvard guy,, dont expect too much except some pro-life votes. (which is still nice,, but he’s certain to disappoint the America first types in many other areas)
