I am a Pharm Chemist and have done RadioPharm work...external contamination is rare, and cleanable. Hell, my bangs got contaminated with P-32, and between cutting and cleaning I was ok.

I have no reason to doubt you. But when you go to a large-scale refining process, I don't think you get such tight controls as you'd have in American public or private labs. We've had a lot of problems in our nuke plants (Rocky Flats) as well as the old problems with Hancock and Oak Ridge. Even granting that we know much more now and the Iraqis probably benefitted, I just think they couldn't be that clean and efficient. But then, I can't prove their incompetence or lack of good equipment either. I tend to think of them as being on the Soviet model (dirty, careless, environmental destruction, careless with lives) instead of the slightly more restrained approach we have in the Western countries. And we certainly have problems too.

As far as "where are all the other materials/parts"...allow me to aquiant you with the Bekka Valley in Syria...soon to be the Bekka Plains.

The effort to expand our operations to Syria has already failed. Barring a massive attack on American interests that can be traced to Syria, it won't happen. But we have succeeded in destabilizing the Syrian regime, already weak. Prospects for democratic reform there are actually pretty good. And Lebanon finally has a chance now that their Syrian masters have withdrawn.

Also look to other Islamazi Nations that support the Koranimals...oh, and don't forget the 3 "Mysterious" Freighters that were roaming around right before and just after the Iraq Invasion!

I think the freighters were bogus. I don't believe they were capable of eluding our satellites and our naval forces. I'd still like to know what happened to them though.
