That's the biggest problem I have with Iraq being the guilty party. Their Scud missiles were not very effective in the Gulf War (Iraq did very poorly in the Gulf War in general), and the Iraq-Iran war was essentially a stalemate. Has Iraq improved its military effectiveness that much? Or are we looking at somebody else, in fact? (Maybe Pakistani scientists have contributed significantly?)
This is the real possibility
for a suitcase bomb
not the nuclear one
that everyone talks about so much.
