I have also noticed - actually it sort of gets in a person's face- that there are a lot of very desperate people trying to claim Iraq didn't have a viable nuke program nor an intention to restart one.
One example is the shrillness and misinformation out there on the business of the aluminum tubes mentioned by Powell.
(The Libyans for example, tried the high strength aluminum tube method before jumping onto Khan's newer model, one which uses a special steel not as subject to corrosion as the former. Yet Libya had quite a shop full of aluminum left over from their R&D nuke efforts.) Here are some letters to the editor responding to the Wash Post writer Gelman, who had nearly wet his pants with glee claiming aluminum tubes referred to by Powell were not for use in a nuclear program. Of course, he managed to mischaracterize, mislead and misquote in an effort to make his point, as the letters to the editor from kay and General Meekin point out here:
Definitely worth a look here:

Note that the Washington Post made a number of HUGE errors in regard to Iraqi WMD and David Kay's investigation besides the aluminum issue.
Pakistani sources claim that there has been another bombshell in the admissions of guilt made by Khan's colleagues and juniors, who are still under custody and questioning. They are reported to have stated that during his over 40 visits to Dubai in the last three years, he had met Iraqi intelligence officials who sought his help in having some of the weapons of mass destruction (WMD) material of Iraq airlifted from Syria to Pakistan for being kept in safe custody there to prevent their falling into the hands of the UN inspectors. Khan allegedly agreed to their request. According to them, in October,2002, Khan had a Pakistani aircraft, which had gone to Iran to deliver some equipment, stop in a Syrian airport on its way back . It picked up the Iraqi WMD "material" and brought it to Pakistan for safe custody on behalf of Iraq. It is not clear what did they mean by material---only documents or something more?
