NEW YORK - Reports are surfacing that Iraqi Security forces have come across a cache of nuclear weapons buried deep in a cement bunker near the Sunni based town of Tikrit.
The security forces discovered the weapons while carrying out a raid in which they arrested a former Baath Party member. Mr. Khodur Al-Douri, revealed the weapons stash during interrogation following his capture.
The weapons were found buried deep in a concrete bunker that according to reports was designed so as to avoid detection by neclear weapons inspection equipment and personnel.
They were under six meters of concrete.
These reports all first appeared in an Iraqi newspaper Al-Sabah. The Washington Times and others picked up the reports in the western press.
The Iraq Interior Minister called the story "stupid", but admitted he was not familiar with the details of the story.
The Iraq Foriegn Minister has asked for the return of Mohammed El Baradei and the International Atomic Energy Agency to resume inspections for nuclear weapons in the country.

I'm with you. I'm praying it is true. Pelosi's jaw would fall to the floor and she'd have to have another facelift.

What do you suppose a "neclear" weapon is?
