That actually worries me, and there may not really be much to be found in Iraq after all

I don't worry about it. Unless you think he really destroyed it without a trace? We'll find it buried in various desert locations, I'm sure.

Before the Gulf War even, Israel had already taken out Iraq's French donated nuclear reactor, a fact which has clearly played a role in France's "good will" toward Israel to this day.

I don't think Israel's "good will" toward France has been so great either, since France dumped them in May 1967 by declaring a total arms embargo just as the Arabs were about to make a concerted effort to wipe Israel off the map. Remember, Israel fought with French arms and jets at that time. If you haven't read Tahieri's article about France's Arab policy since that time, I'd be interested in your opinion.
