This isnt totally true..
The reason why this happened.. having 80s weapons and using them by 40s manner is because of Saddam..
He wanted good weapons but didnt want to train his people to be too good in using them as:
If they knew how to fully exploit these weapons..
Saddam and his secret police force etc.. would have been sitting ducks for them..
Iraqs army officers tryed many times to kill Saddam.. and take over..
And Saddams men did kill lots of these people.. some times seemingly just for the fun of it.. or because they were paranoid..
Paronoid that Army would over throw em..
