I'm getting confused here. If you worked on this technology, they why did we need Britain to give us the encryption codes so that we could decode it?

Rita said early on that Britain sold this to Saddam and told him the code could not be broken. Then recently gave the encryption code to us to see if we could decode it so that we could monitor his movements and voice over his communications.

I thought spread-spectrum (thought up by Heddy Lamar, BTW!) digitizing couldn't be broken, no matter what?
