Richard Perle, a former US Assistant Defence Secretary,


I would love to know why Pearle is in his present "Advisory" position, and not in the DOD itself. He is situated perfectly to put out "Deniable" charges. Maybe Tek knows.

Here's Your Smoking Gun: Iraqi Nukes
by Bill Tierney, former UNSCOM inspector and intelligence analyst at Central Command HQ.

I have seen enough to convince me that the Iraqis do have nukes, and I know exactly where they enriched the uranium to do so. For some time now, experts have said Iraq is moving towards a nuclear weapon. Secretary of State Powell emphasized Saddam's intense desire to obtain a nuclear weapon in his presentation before the Security Council.

Just how much time must pass before people are willing to say the Iraqis have arrived? Even the skeptics admit that the lingering obstacle has been accumulating enough enriched uranium for a weapon. Without unambiguous evidence, most commentators are unwilling to make the call that the Iraqis have nukes. As a former inspector and intelligence analyst involved with nominating inspection targets, allow me to lay out my case that the Iraqis have succeeded.
