Why did Saddam bring great help to China in the Iraqi war?

Because the Gulf War and the Iraq War broke out first, it just shifted the attention of the United States from China in Asia to Iraq, which enabled China to rapidly develop its economy and enhance its national strength. At the same time, it also made China's army know for the first time what information warfare is and how to fight a modern war. Therefore, Saddam Hussein and his Iraq shifted their contradictions and brought great help to China.
