Highly dubious "evidence". Iraq had a nuclear program for power generation. They never had any facilities for upgrading yellowcake to weapons grade. The IAEA was let in by Saddam and was inspecting their facilities. It's very EASY to monitor any such activity.

The "radioactive" material was spent fuel from the defunct reactors (that were bombed by the Isreali's - highly irresponsible in potentially exposing the Iraqi people to a nuclear disaster). The containers were sealed by the IAEA and the seals were broken by the USA. The US Troops allowed looters into the facilities and much of that material disappeared into thin air.

There's again this myth of a "dirty bomb", which is all nonsense. There's no such possibility of developing any such device that would spread enough nuclear material to harm anyone.

Nice spin though. Try again.
