Building a nuclear weapon, and the means to deliver it, takes a large industrial complex, with a lot of inputs. You can't hide it in Presidential Palaces. You can't hide it in the back of trucks. You can identify it and destroy it from the air.

Jacob, that is just not true, and we know it's not true, not from speculation, but from actual history. UNSCOM had literally no idea of the state of Saddam Hussein's nuclear programs in 1995 before Hussein Kamel defected and spilled the beans on them. You can disguise nuclear programs if you care enough about it, and Saddam has had plenty of practice in doing so. He has no intention of making the mistake of Osirak again! Remember, those Presidential Palaces are measured in square miles. We are not talking about single buildings, but enormous complexes.
