We're beginning to see the WMD. |
|
The ingredients are being given out one at a time. The High Explosive neeeded to trigger an atomic blast. The Uranium to process. The sophisticated machine tools necessary to create the device. What else did we overlook as we destroyed that other 400,000 tons of arms.

1. If the purpose of the war was to find WMD you would have a point |
|
however, the purpose of the war was.....Oil? Israel? "freedom in the middle east" ? shit, all we know is it sure wasn't because of WMD.

3. You imply we were told lies. |

It's clear they were on the job. We've found where they were (even though the inspectors had reported it). At least it is clear how Cheney is so sure we could have a nuclear attack in this country.

.... as long as the HEU or Pu241 is there, any reasonably smart person with a machine shop, some electrical knowhow, and some conventional high explosives can get the chain reaction going.
Fire a sub-critical piece of HEU into another sub-critical piece, as long as the total mass is supercritical you've got yourself an nuclear bomb.
Might not be pretty, nor very high yield, but it'll go.
