Nuclear is the most worrisome of the WMD in my opinion...I wonder how far they got with the program.

I totally agree. I still can't consider the Iraq conflict in hand because of exactly this possibility. Any nuke experts out there know if this kind of radiation (spent pile materials and heavy water?) could be used as a screen for nuclear weapons?

Really? I am alot more worried about biological weapons. Sure a nuke going off in DC or New York would be horrible, but you can't destory all of the USA with an experimental nuke program from a terrorist state. However, things like Marburg, Ebola, Smallpox. These things really scare me. They have the potential to spread exponentially. In some areas of the Congo and Zaire, Ebola has over a 75% death rate and possibily as high as 90%. If this disease was airborn and had a several day lag time between effects and transmission, watch out.
