"Consider also that when Iraq released its 12,000 page report on its [[Weapons of Mass Destruction]] (WMD) programs, the U.S. government promptly censored several thousand pages. Among the pages that it withheld from public view in the U.S. were pages showing which corporations had made billions of dollars in profits during the 1980s and '90s by selling Iraq all of the technology, equipment and weapons that it needed to become the threat that the U.S. government insists it is today.
"Those corporations include: [[Honeywell]], [[Spektra Physics]], [[Semetex]], [[TI Coating]], [[UNISYS]], [[Sperry Corporation]], [[Tektronix]], [[Rockwell]], [[Leybold Vacuum Systems]], [[Finnigan-MAT-US]], [[Hewlett Packard]], [[Dupont]], [[Eastman Kodak]], [[American Type Culture Collection]] (involved in bioweapons research), [[Alcolac International]], [[Consarc]], [[International Computer Systems]], [[Bechtel]], [[EZ Logic Data Systems]], [[Canberra Industries]]. Many of these companies which operate overseas are subsidiaries of larger corporations based in the U.S. And the Iraqi government also received assistance from the [[Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory]] and the [[Sandia National Laboratories]].26
