If the locals have been drinking heavy water, all that is needed it to test them. They will find real evidence.

Phew! I thought I was losing my conservative mind. Glad to see others feel the same way.

Hey, isn't that a violation?

Good thing we sent weapons inspectors in.

Heavy water -- a water molecule with an extra neutron -- is harmless in itself, but it is used to slow down nuclear reactions, necessary for producing atomic bombs.

not sure.. I know I wouldn't bring it to their attention.. can't stand those stations :) Judging by the Pentagon briefing going on now, the fox news guy was the only one aware of it but I'm sure now the others are going to be hunting for info on it too

They're all claiming that we're going to plant evidence... whatever we find will be discounted by the libs.

Which begs the question... If no one is going to believe us anyway, why not plant?

IIRC radioactive materials have a sort of "DNA" in that they can all be identified as to where they were/are manufactured by their composition. We don't need a "Made in" label all we need is a small sample to determine from whence it came.

Oh, so that's where she was. I never hear anything personal about these people. Guess I have to cross her off my list since she's spoken for.

Any info on Brenda Buttner or Catherine Herridge?

I am glad you posted the UN inspectors said they couldn't find anything. This is from the last report on March 7, 2003, by the IAEA Lead Inspector, Mr. ElBaradei [http://ods-dds-ny.un.org/doc/UNDOC/PRO/N03/270/76/PDF/N0327076.pdf?OpenElement]:


"In conclusion, I am able to report today that, in
the area of nuclear weapons — the most lethal weapons
of mass destruction — inspections in Iraq are moving
forward. Since the resumption of inspections a little
over three months ago — and particularly during the
three weeks since my last oral report to the Council —
the IAEA has made important progress in identifying
what nuclear-related capabilities remain in Iraq, and in
its assessment of whether Iraq has made any efforts to
revive its past nuclear programme during the
intervening four years since inspections were brought
to a halt. At this stage, the following can be stated.

"First, there is no indication of resumed nuclear
activities in those buildings that were identified
through the use of satellite imagery as having been
reconstructed or newly erected since 1998, nor any
indication of nuclear-related prohibited activities at any
inspected sites.

"Secondly, there is no indication that Iraq has
attempted to import uranium since 1990.
Thirdly, there is no indication that Iraq has
attempted to import aluminium tubes for use in
centrifuge enrichment. Moreover, even if Iraq had
pursued such a plan, it would have encountered
practical difficulties in manufacturing centrifuges out
of the aluminium tubes in question.

"Fourthly, although we are still reviewing issues
related to magnets and magnet production, there is no
indication to date that Iraq imported magnets for use in
a centrifuge enrichment programme.

"As I stated earlier, the IAEA will naturally
continue further to scrutinize and investigate all of
these issues."
