Well now, this is mighty interesting.

***UK did this in 2002(released docs about nukes)***: "The plans give complete cross-sections, precise measurements and full details of materials used for all the components, including the plutonium core and the initiator that sets off the chain reaction causing the blast."
Rubbing hands together in GLEE!!!
Over and Over and Over again
once again, Drudge was right on top of this
lastnight at about 7pm est, he had pretty much what times was going to do today
fricken times is about the most adolescent outfit on earth
CRUSH THE DEMS and the euro libs.

WHAT WHAT WHAT.......WMD and IRAQ IN THE SAME SENTENCE
BTTT
Why go to a government website written in Arabic? Just go to Amazon.com and learn the newest upgrades to your own Nuclear Bomb. As a bonus we will offer you a copy of the Joe Wilson book,"How to get High Grade Uranium from Niger and not get caught".

All I did just now was type in 'how to make an atomic bomb' on Google. At least two working pages detailing the process on the first 20 results. Do they really think that these documents would be the only source of atomic bomb-making?
They screwed up. This proves Saddam had nuclear ambitions, and they're too blinded by hatred to see it.

The US government posted on the Internet Iraqi documents that explain how to build a nuclear bomb, the New York Times reported on its website saying officials from the International Atomic Energy Agency had complained to US officials last week about the postings of "roughly a dozen" documents from Iraq's pre-1991 nuclear research that contained diagrams, equations and other details for making a nuclear bomb(AFP/DoE/File)
Never forget: Joe Wilson said that there was no attempt to purchase yellow cake "through legal channels". If they were seeking it, it would be via illegal channels. Like Duh, Joe.
Well, well, well. Bumped and bookmarked.
A nuclear bomb would not qualify as a WMD. Just ask Madeline Halfbright, Howeird Dean, Hanoi Kerry, Jimmuh Caatah, Chappaquiddick Kennedy, Schmuck Schumer, Leftlunatic Levin, Feinstein, Boxer, Leahy, Reid, Rockefeller, Pelosi, Frank, Hillary Klinton, BJ Klinton and the rest of the fools in the Democrat-Socialist Party of Amerika.

Good analysis on your part. I just get frustrated sometimes. I can only imagine how frustrating the whole thing is for Bush, who has to face those liars and traitors every day.

A dangerous cookbook
The deletions, the diplomats said, had been done in consultation with the United States and other nuclear-weapons nations. Mohamed ElBaradei, the director of the International Atomic Energy Agency, which ran the nuclear part of the inspections, told the Security Council in late 2002 that the deletions were "consistent with the principle that proliferation-sensitive information should not be released."
In Europe, a senior diplomat said atomic experts there had studied the nuclear documents on the Web site and judged their public release as potentially dangerous. "It's a cookbook," said the diplomat, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of his agency's rules. "If you had this, it would short-circuit a lot of things."
The New York Times had examined dozens of the documents and asked a half dozen nuclear experts to evaluate some of them.
Peter D. Zimmerman, a physicist and former United States government arms scientist now at the war studies department of King's College, London, called the posted material "very sensitive, much of it undoubtedly secret restricted data."
Ray E. Kidder, a senior nuclear physicist at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California, an arms design center, said "some things in these documents would be helpful" to nations aspiring to develop nuclear weapons and should have remained secret.
A senior American intelligence official who deals routinely with atomic issues said the documents showed "where the Iraqis failed and how to get around the failures." The documents, he added, could perhaps help Iran or other nations making a serious effort to develop nuclear arms, but probably not terrorists or poorly equipped states. The official, who requested anonymity because of his agency's rules against public comment, called the papers "a road map that helps you get from point A to point B, but only if you already have a car."
In September, the Web site began posting the nuclear documents, and some soon raised concerns. On Sept. 12, it posted a document it called "Progress of Iraqi nuclear program circa 1995." That description is potentially misleading since the research occurred years earlier.
The Iraqi document is marked "Draft FFCD Version 3 (20.12.95)," meaning it was preparatory for the "Full, Final, Complete Disclosure" that Iraq made to United Nations inspectors in March 1996. The document carries three diagrams showing cross sections of bomb cores, and their diameters.
On Sept. 20, the site posted a much larger document, "Summary of technical achievements of Iraq's former nuclear program." It runs to 51 pages, 18 focusing on the development of Iraq's bomb design. Topics included physical theory, the atomic core and high-explosive experiments. By early October, diplomats and officials said, United Nations arms inspectors in New York and their counterparts in Vienna were alarmed and discussing what to do.
Last week in Vienna, Olli J. Heinonen, head of safeguards at the international atomic agency, expressed concern about the documents to Schulte, diplomats said.
