Saddam has never been close to having a bomb, and so it is a falacy to play either/or as if there is some kind of equal chance that he has a bomb or not. The overwhelming evidence says NOT.
Like I believe I told someone else, I'd like to share your point of view, but I don't think we could get both of our heads up your @ss..
By the end of the 1991 Gulf War, IAEA assessments indicated Saddam was six months away from building an atomic bomb. Inspectors discovered the oil-rich nation had imported thousands of pounds of uranium, some of which was already refined for weapons use, and had considered two types of nuclear delivery systems.
Over the next six years, inspectors seized the uranium, destroyed facilities and chemicals, dismantled over 40 missiles and confiscated thousands of documents.
This does not, I believe, include the enriched uranium.

It may be true that he hasn't yet touched the Uranium that France sold them, because it's already public acknowledged. But Saddam had an extensive enrichment program where they had achieved amounts up to 24% enrichment, with even greater percentages possible if they obtained sufficient high speed centrifuges.
But I really didn't expect an apology from you.. That would require some integrity, as well as asking permission from Darrel..
I suggest next time you be more sure of your facts before lamblasting me as posting fallacious information.
