And maybe the radiation provides cover for what really goes on underground there.

I wish all the POSSIBLE FIND reports would just stop. They are not news. When we have something confirmed, then wake me up. Otherwise, I am just gonna keep partying in the streets of Baghdad....

"...While officials aren't prepared to call the discovery a "smoking gun," two preliminary tests conducted on the material have indicated that it may be weapons-grade plutonium..."

OK boys and girls - what's plutonium used for? No, it's not to make watches glow-in-the-dark. No, it's not to activate electric-power-plants. No, it's not to make two-headed-cows, although that could be a side effect.

Right! It's used to make nuclear bombs. I just knew you'd figure it out.............FRegards

They most certainly are news. At least you're a step ahead of many around here that have trouble recognizing the qualifiers (may, possibly, to be determined, preliminary). Take these reports for what they are - preliminary, accurate reports of what has been found, and speculation as to what it might be. And you're right, save any celebrating for when there's confirmation by CENTCOM, the Pentagon, or the Administration.
