Is this not a Drudge Siren moment? And why isn’t this in “Breaking News”? They’ve found WMD in Iraq and its not a huge deal? Colored me confused.

Nuclear material in Saddam’s possession was already known to exist when we invaded...even the UN knew about it and had been to the site and had tagged some of the items.

We really didn’t know for sure the exact and full extent of the program, though.

As some have pointed out, this was known of even prior to the gulf war when Bush I was president. But back then as well, we lacked complete and precise knowledge of his plans and program.

It was scary and suspicious, however.

It isn’t a siren on drudge because this isn’t about a new find. It’s about securing what was there that was known.

But the story has not been well covered by the media, and the administration didn’t want to talk about it because they were trying to secure the stuff and keep it from falling into the wrong hands.
