"The U.N.'s International Atomic Energy Agency had raised those questions two weeks before the State of the Union address, saying Hussein claimed nonnuclear intentions for the tubes. In March, the IAEA said it found Hussein's claim credible, and could all but rule out the use of the tubes in a nuclear program."

Let me get this straight .. They asked Saddam what the tubes for for AND THEY BELIEVED HIM???

And .. I REALLY wish they would stop quoting annoymous sources

Um, what you evidently think is new news from the Washington Post was discussed yesterday. Review the content of the president's reference to the matter again and ponder. Then remember that Britain still stands by their claim.
