For instance, when the US advance captured the Salman Pak site during the war, the US forces came under criticism because they did not (because they could not for obvious reasons, its a multi-thousand acre site) fully protect the entire site.
As a result, the Bush critics said, local Iraqis had looted unprotected areas and exposed themselves to radiation poisoning.
Why? How? Here's why -- they found large quantities of plastic tubs filled with -- you guessed it -- yellowcake, which the Iraqis unceremoniously dumped on the ground -- because it was the plastic tubs they were after.
Si if the Iraqis had already, in their possession, large quantities of yellowcake, they question of whether a document disclosing their efforts to get yellowcake is totally irrelevant and moot.
Unless, of couse, your in such a bizarro world of Bush-hate that mere existence of a false document alleging the truth of something that it oh-by-the-way true anyway is a cause for wailing and teeth-gnashing.
