"It isn't being called a smoking gun, because it isn't. Remnants of the Iraqi weapons program are all over the place. And calling a gas centrifuge that you could find in any cow college and even some high schools a 'smoking gun' would look pretty damn stupid."
If they were all over the place, they would've been found by now. Not to mention that Saddam was required to turn all of this over to the weapons inspectors years ago. I don't care what you find in any "cow college." Saddam was under orders as part of the cease-fire to present and destroy all remnants of his bio/chem/nuke program...and he obviously didn't. This is just one more example of the duplicity of his regime.

the weapons inspectors found tons of them, and if the scientists walked off with this thing just before the start of the first gulf war because he knew it would be destroyed when his facility was bombed, the Iraqi government probably counted it as destroyed in the bombing.
