The "key" to the article is that the scientist knows something and is willing to talk to us. These scientists lived in fear during the weapons inspections and THE WORLD WATCHED as Saddam controlled these scientists. The few interviews that did occur were a farce. Yet, Mr. Blix played it to the world as a sign of cooperation.

This "talking scientist" may take down BOTH Blix and the UN Nuke expert.

Bush said this:

“The International Atomic Energy Agency confirmed in the 1990s that Saddam Hussein had an advanced nuclear weapons development program, had a design for a nuclear weapon and was working on five different methods of enriching uranium for a bomb.”

That was from the State of the Union. Now, it is true that he is just quoting from the IAEA. Which means either that the IAEA was wrong OR, as some people claim, they were talking about a prewar program. So Bush wasn't lying, but it's not comforting if he's using old or incorrect information to stregthen the argument for war. In any case, this find looks promising, but it is also likely that it will turn out to not be too much...for example, if the equipment was forgotten and beyond any use.
