NYT Reporting Friday, Sources Say: U.S. Posting of Iraq Nuke Docs on Web Could Have Helped Iran
Drudge Report ^ | November 2, 2006

Posted on 11/02/2006 7:14:31 PM PST by West Coast Conservative

Federal government set up Web site -- Operation Iraqi Freedom Document Portal -- to make public a vast archive of Iraqi documents captured during the war; detailed accounts of Iraq's secret nuclear research; a 'basic guide to building an atom bomb'... Officials of the International Atomic Energy Agency fear the information could help Iran develop nuclear arms... contain charts, diagrams, equations and lengthy narratives about bomb building that the nuclear experts say go beyond what is available elsewhere on the Internet and in other public forums...

Website now shut... Developing...

But, but, but...I thought that Saddam wasn't seeking Nuclear weapons and had completely shut his program down. Talk about dazed and confused.

That's weak. If that's best hit piece the Times can do, they are truly going down hill. I'm embarrassed for them.

Mmmm, I wonder where Iraq got the documents in the first place and why Iran couldn't get them.

Oh, this is one lame story.

IAEA...what a joke!

So the NY Times has completely ignored everything that justifies the war and shuts the liberals up and now they are blaming Bush for presenting that information?

Nuclear physics is not a secret or mystery, it's a field. An entire profession.

I read thousands of documents so far and not a single one "detail" how to build a nuclear bomb. So now the New York Times is interested in the documents but they do not mention the many documents that show Saddam never stopped in working to develop his nuclear program or WMD.

LOL, so no one in the world knew how to build nukes before Saddam??

How did we and the Soviets learn?

So Iran wouldn't be a concern except for the documents found in Iraq and posted on the web. Is that the NYT's position? Because it's ludicrous.

According to the world of the increasingly mentally unstable Democrats, Iran should be handled immediately (even though they aren't nearly as far along in nuclear technology as Iraq was) and Iraq, which had used chemicals on their neighbors and actually did try to purchase yellowcake from Niger should have been left alone.

Got that?
