And France and Russia sold relatively small amounts -- 50 kilograms -- of highly enriched, weapons-ready uranium to Iraq during the same period.
I thought you needed less than a pound to make a 5KT Atomic Bomb? So maybe he can make 10 nukes? Aside - is this Albright any relation to Madame Halfbright? Sounds like her twin ...

It depends on how good your bomb design and manufacturing team is. A small well built and designed nuke needs about 20 kilos of plutonium and more if it is enriched uranium. As your design and/or manufacture gets more sloppy, you need more.
