Libya most likely tried to use uranium from Chad, either by enriching it to bomb-grade, or cooking plutonium in a reactor. They'd be somewhat unique.

Unless they simply bought the damn bombs wholesale from the Mafiya.

But that raises an interesting question. Why does eveyone opt for the "do-it-yourself" approach to nukes, instead of buying a few leftovers from the former workers' paradise?

Do they? I do wonder if a few have been sold. Do we have to wait for the mushroom clouds to find out?
