JVERITAS Responds to the 11/3 NYT Article Regarding Iraq Nuclear Program.

The New York Times article to be published on November 3rd 2006 is about the US putting some captured Iraqi documents on the Foreign Military Intelligence Office (FMSO) website that talks about what the NYT and the IAEA call sensitive information from Iraq 1996 "Full, Final, and Complete Declaration FFCD presented to the UN and IAEA in 1996 and that talks about Iraq nuclear clandestine program. The IAEA and the New York Times claim that Iran may be using some of the technology in this FFCD which is a laughable idea as shown below.

That is from the IAEA website regardinf their report on Iraq FFCD presented to them by the Iraqis in 1996: “ 3. On 7 September 1996 in Baghdad Iraq delivered what it considered to be the definitive version of the "Full, Final, and Complete Declaration" (FFCD-F) of the Iraqi clandestine nuclear programme. The IAEA with the assistance of technical experts from Member States undertook a comprehensive review of the document.” Link: http://www.iaea.org/About/Policy/GC/GC41/Documents/gc41-20.html

So the FFCD was discussed with member states experts of the IAEA. There are 142 members in the IAEA including Iran. I am not saying that the IAEA discussed the Iraqi FFCD with Iranians but the FFCD was not such a secret document and the Iranians would have been able to access it in one way or another if it really provide them with any useful information.

What is important in this whole issue is that the New York Times has ridiculed these documents all along and never payed attention to them including the very important documents that show Saddam regime never stopped its programs related to WMD including nuclear programs. These documents were translated and posted here on FR.

On the subject of nuclear program, I translated and posted a document last month dated January 2001 that shows with a shadow of doubt that Saddam was personally involved with his nuclear scientist to re-build the nuclear program. In this document it states that Saddam personally approved his Iraqi Atomic Energy Agency to re-use nuclear equipments that include something called “Degussa Furnaces” that were used in the previous and prohibited Iraq nuclear program. These furnaces can be used to melt uranium and other nuclear related activities. The Degussa Vacuum furnaces were supplied to Iraq in the 1980’s by a German firm (Degussa AG based in Frankfurt Germany) and these furnaces later on became the subject of investigations of the German firm in the early 1990’s where the company claimed that they did not know that Iraq would have used them in its nuclear program.

The New York Times had an article in 1998 titled “An Iraqi Defector Warns of Iraq's Nuclear Weapons Research” where the Degussa furnaces were mentioned as part of “previous” Iraq nuclear program and the controversy surrounding the sale of these furnaces and the investigations later on(link: http://www-personal.umich.edu/~sanders/214/other/news/iraqi_defector.html ). The irony is that this is not only a New York Times article but also it was written by JUDITH MILLER and JAMES RISEN once of the worst accusers (liars) that the Bush administration lied about Iraq WMD. Where are you Scott Shane????

Moreover, there are documents dated 1999-2001 that talk about Saddam regime projects to re-build some of the nuclear program facilities like RWTS (Radioactive Waste Treatment Station) and Radio-Chemistry laboratories which were part of Iraq previous clandestine nuclear program.

I also posted a link to this on LGF (besides emailing it to Bush, Rush, Drudge, Santorum, Hannity, Brit Hume, O'Reilly, Fox & Friends etc). Hopefully some people will see it.

Good job, jveritas.

The NYT tries to make clear that the nuclear program notes are from pre 1991:

"But in recent weeks, the site has posted some documents that weapons experts say are a danger themselves: detailed accounts of Iraq’s secret nuclear research before the 1991 Persian Gulf war. The documents, the experts say, constitute a basic guide to building an atom bomb."

But then confusion reigns because the NYT reports that Iraq was a year away from building an atom bomb. Were they talking about 1991 or 2002? This paragraph is unclear:

"Among the dozens of documents in English were Iraqi reports written in the 1990’s and in 2002 for United Nations inspectors in charge of making sure Iraq abandoned its unconventional arms programs after the Persian Gulf war. Experts say that at the time, Mr. Hussein’s scientists were on the verge of building an atom bomb, as little as a year away."

Everyone should email this (and the CNN 2002 story about UK releasing detailed nuke info?). There are two issues here: 1. Saddam had WMD plans and will 2. The supposedly dangerous info on internet (we just have word of NYT that it could not be obtained elsewhere)

It is my belief that this is a preemptive strike by the Times against a larger story coming in the next couple of days, almost a last great act of desperation by the Times to get President Bush before they are totally blown away by something that they are hearing leaks about.

There is no other reason possible why they would come so close to admitting Saddam was even thinking about Nukes much less building one.

Just hearing about this on the morning news. Thank goodness we have patriots like yourself working tirelessly to bring us the real truth. I hope Tony Snow is reading and can put this out quickly.


I am incredulous at the obvious posturing of the NYT.

Someone close to the EIB microphone has posted on this very thread.

A tantalizing suggestion!

Does anybody have a recap of how this has been covered on the morning shows? I have only watched F & F, and could have missed it, but I didn't even see them cover the NYT's story at all. Anybody else?
