Inspectors also visited the State Phosphate Company in Al-Qa'im, 400 kilometers west of Baghdad, which produces agricultural fertilizers and houses stored uranium, according to the Iraqi Foreign Ministry. UNMOVIC reported, "Al-Qa'im was previously associated with Iraq's production of uranium from ores found in the area. The team is tasked with verifying the status of destroyed equipment at this site and an inspection to determine that no uranium extraction activities have been resumed."

It is also interesting to note that the term Al-Qa’im means "The One Who Will Rise" aka Al-Mahdi, meaning "The Guided One"

Very intriguing! What would a MOAB do to WMD's? Would it incinerate them or possibly disperse them?
