Suspect Iraqi Tubes Unintended for Atomic Arms -UN
Thu Jan 9,12:44 PM ET Add World - Reuters to My Yahoo!


UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - Mohamed ElBaradei, the head of the U.N. nuclear watchdog agency, told the U.N. Security Council on Thursday that aluminum tubes suspected of being a part of an Iraqi nuclear arms program were unsuitable for that use.



ElBaradei, director-general of the Vienna-based International Atomic Energy Agency, said according to his speaking notes obtained by Reuters that U.N. arms inspectors in Iraq had concluded that the tubes "appear to be consistent with reverse engineering of rockets," as Baghdad has claimed, rather than for enriching uranium for nuclear arms.

The United States and Britain have raised the alarm in recent months over alleged attempts by Iraq to buy aluminum tubes that could be used to process uranium. Iraq denied the charges and said it had had the tubes since the 1980s.

Jlallen <You sound like a useful idiot spouting Iraqi propaganda... >

You do not sound like a useful idiot to spout propaganda, not enough spinning nor rethorical skills

Ilmarinen

Congratulations, asking questions is always a good start.

< And, if the Iraqis are in full compliance why the reluctance to allow private interviews with Iraqi scientists?>
No reluctance, if agreement on who are the Iraqi scientists to interview, and not harassing anyone for
unlimited amounts of time

<Why is the declaration full of holes?>

You mean like Arthuritis Accounting parctices?? happens to the best...

<What happened to the thousands of pound of BW agents unaccounted for?>

Ouch, I think I threw away some old chickenfeed, garden growth material, sour creme and milk,
even some old fish, many years ago. However, most of it disposed in my compost, must be
somewhere around the apple trees, diffused into the lawn, at least traces of it.

<Why the failure to cooperate with Blix? >

Which and what one??

Btw, how did you do in organic chemistry in school??
Isn't it a tradegy how bad CocaCola from concentrate tastes in some parts of USA, all that
mustard gas they put into the water?? Even worse, those swimming pools, all those nasty chemicals
and those nuts, antifungustreatment and all.

>>>You sound like a useful idiot spouting Iraqi propaganda...<<<

Actually, there's nothing idiotic about my position. France, Russia and China sort of share my view. And more recently, England has been coming around to my view.

Me thinks you should go camp out on the moon under the USA flag. You wouldn't have a problem with that, as everything would be going only your way and you wouldn't have any problems with people from other nations.

Thoreau once wrote, "If a plant can't live acording to its nature, it dies; and so a man." America has a monopoly on many things my friend, but nature is not one of 'em.
