| #3 This is an antique story, there is even a Wiki about it, but not only that, it is totally irrelevant. The zinger is that Saddam already *had* a large amounts of pre-nuclear weapons material: http://tinyurl.com/76mr3 (What the report doesn't mention is all the other stuff the US absconded with post-invasion. We made enormous amounts of equipment and materiel disappear.) |

| #2 Wasn't that part of the Wilson/Niger Yellowcake story, way back when? Nice that the Telegraph has caught up with Rantburg! |

| #1 Italian diplomats have claimed that, by disseminating bogus documents stating that Iraq was trying to buy low-grade "yellowcake" uranium from Niger, France was trying to "set up" Britain and America in the hope that when the mistake was revealed it would undermine the case for war, which it wanted to prevent. Wow! The MSM is going to be all over this (not). |
