iraq yellowcake uranium

Published Jul. 12, 2008

 Excuse me if this has already hit the Golo blogs but  I have not seen it anywhere. OldSchool referenced, in his blog about Clinton, the Liberals assertion that "Bush lied and People died". What the Liberal media has not done was get out the message that 550 metric tons of Yellowcake Uranium was discovered in Iraq in 2003 and was recently delivered to a facility in Canada that is going to use it in energy producing reactors. This Yellowcake can be enriched to use in weapons. 

 I found this ARTICLE  in the Chicago Sun Times.

This is not the only thing that we found there that could have been used for weapons of mass destruction. Every time you bring this type of thing up with liberals and you present them with the facts, they always say that that does not qualify as a WMD.

Sigh... The reason this didn't make the media is because between 1982 and 1984 Iraq imported 300 tons legally and reported it to the IAEA. The total 550 tons was known to the UN and to UN inspector Hans Blick after Desert Storm. Not only was the yellow cake held by Iraq not weapons grade it wasn't even 'dirty bomb grade'. Iraq was ALLOWED with the full knowledge of the allies in Desert Storm to keep it because it posed such a nominal threat. Iraq did not, does not, and would have struggled to build the expensive and complex facilities to enrich it. It would have been much more efficient of them to buy a higher grade isotope on the black market. So the US has known about this since George H. W. Bush was president, hardly counts as new and shocking news... C'mon even Fox took a pass on it. UN inspectors in conjunction with the US military cataloged and sealed the yellow cake in 1991. There is no evidence that shows any yellow cake aquired after 1991.

So I go back and read that thread and find two-and-a-half moonbats spewing illogical tripe, but none of the four that were on GOLO at the time of this discussion.

You havent heard much from the other side because we already discussed this at length this past wednesday, when Tmedlin posted a blog about it.

Here is the discussion: [url=http://www.wral.com/golo/blogpost/3174572/[/url]

And the more detailed AP Report: [url=http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/national/1107ap_iraq_yellowcake_mission.html[/url]

How often are actions taken on behalf of the American people to protect us, and we never hear about them. It's very easy to bash a person or program. It's very hard to come up with a more palatable idea. That's the thing about America. Anybody can say what they want (and I love it). Go USA!!

'I really don’t care if Iraq had weapons of mass destruction or not.

It’s clear by the actions of their leaders that they wanted us to THINK that they did.'

THEY USED THEM AND COMMITTED GENOCIDE!!!

In your mind the Americans are the 'bad guys'. I defend your right to think this is a bad country but (unless a judge has ruled otherwise) you have the right to leave if you feel that strongly against MY COUNTRY, your choice!

Dont expect to hear anything from them either, there were plots uncovered to poison Washington D.C.s water supply, there were plans found that they were attempting to assasinate clinton, and Bush Sr. etc. etc... Not from Al Quieda, but from Saddams people. you cant tell a leftist that sort of stuff because it doesnt go along with what they "feel" is true. These people were our enemies, make no bones about it.

Good call Steve

Anyone else notice that there are at least four raving leftist moonbats rummaging around GOLO today and not one of them has commented on this story?

They never let it make the news with those 400 mustard gas bombs they found and removed either. I came across that on a history program a couple of weeks ago. Showed them finding in the Iraq back in some of those caves. They chose not to say anything at the time of the find due to security reasons. Never say that make any headlines either.........

I really don’t care if Iraq had weapons of mass destruction or not.

It’s clear by the actions of their leaders that they wanted us to THINK that they did.

There is no question that they did clearly deny that they had such weapons, but the denial was made in such a way as to raise questions about the level of their sincerity.

Nuclear weapons? Who? Little old us? Why WE would NEVER have such things. Etc. Inspections? Absolutely not ....

It’s the same sort of thing that the world is hearing from Iran now.

Makes me nervous, it does. Probably just as it is supposed to do ....

Anyone that is crazy enough to actually want to make presidential decisions about such matters, to my way of thinking, should automatically disqualify themselves from office.
