"If you allow someone like Saddam Hussein to get nuclear weapons, ballistic missiles, chemical weapons, biological weapons, how many people is he going to kill with such weapons?
He's already demonstrated a willingness to use these weapons.
He poison-gassed his own people.
He used poison gas and other weapons of mass destruction against his neighbors.
This man has no compunction about killing lots and lots of people...."

According to one of Saddam's own nuke scientists, Iraq had an assembled device of several kilotons capacity by '94 (3 yrs after all such devices were to be verifiably destroyed). All they lacked was its enriched uranium core (which they were feverishly working to acquire). Saddam was not even going to test the device, but planed to drop it unannounced on Israel.
Do any Freepers know what became of this device?
