Hes half way telling the truth, as usual. I dont recall the names, but there was a middle America local TV reporter who filed reports just after the fall of Baghdad that he rolled in with Marines to some nuclear facility had a secret underground facility and plutonium. Turns out that it was low level yellowcake, and the underground facility was well know by the UN. The yellowcake was also known by the UN, but had the UN seals ripped off by looters prior to the Marines rolling in.
Securing this facility wasnt a top priority with us. Securing the oil fields was, so much so that we sent in Special Forces to take out Saddams demolition operations prior to the start of the war. It was an excellent decision and saved Iraqs oil production capacity. Too bad that point wasnt driven home, but high sight is 20-20.
