These radioactive isotopes were NOT in Iraqi hospitals, they were at Al Tuwaitha, one of Saddam's nuclear weapons sites. Dirty bombs ARE weapons of mass destruction.

IAEA is now saying that the material is enough for several "plenty of" dirty bombs. That would meet the definition of WMD by anyone.

Fadil Mohsen Abed, head of the medical-isotopes department. Stainless-steel uranium canisters had been stolen.

There were medical use radiation items. Google search to see where we store our hospital radiation items (nuclear power plants are right up there).

A dirty bomb does not meet the defintion of WMD. It would have to be a workable fission weapon to be one.
