Russian companies sold them the equipment that they used to use to manufacture chem/bio weapons. Where do you think the T-72 tanks came from? They were purchased *after* Gulf War I.
Comparing the US to those two is apples to oranges. We're also cleaning up this mess that we helped to create (not by ourselves though). I will not be one bit surprised to see find that France and Russia have known about the chem/bio weapons all along and have been worried that the rest of the world would find out (pure speculation on my part but not too far-fetched).
