Building a nuclear bomb doesn't require a lot of equipment. What needs time and special equipment is refining the uranium into plutonium. Once the plutonium is on hand, depending on the design of the bomb, construction isn't a particularly big deal.

This whole thing is wacko NYT-ism again, IMO. If the documents were, in fact, of a classified nature, somebody should be going to jail for allowing them to be posted on the internet. More likely, the documents were NOT classified (even if the 'experts' at the Times think they should have been), and taking them off the 'net was more a matter of prudence than anything else.

Now, if the NYT had published them, leftists all over the country would be bragging about how the Times, once again, is fulfilling the country's "right to know." But, since the Times DIDN'T publish the documents, it must be a horrible thing.
